Lesson Summary The slope in math is denoted by m. The standard form equation for finding the slope of a line is: Ax + By = C. The slope from the standard form equation is: m = -A/B. The slope intercept equation is: y=mx+b. The point slope equation is:
Negative 12. And then you can simply subtract 6. And then change all of the sides. So hopefully byMoreNegative 12. And then you can simply subtract 6. And then change all of the sides. So hopefully by now you can take an equation that's written in point slope form.

There are several orders in which you can accomplish the steps needed to change from point-slope to general form, but basically: subtract m(x-x1) from both sides: y - y1 -m(x - x1)= 0. distribute m, yielding y - y1 -mx +mx1 = 0. combine the constants y1 and mx1. Rearrange the order so you have -mx +y +(mx1-y1)=0.
Point-slope appears in the form y-y1= m (x-x1). Take an example: y-5=15(x-2). This function has a slope of 15 and includes the point (2,5). To convert it to standard form (y=mx+b), you simply distribute the 15 to the terms in parentheses and then add 5 to both sides to isolate y.
And then 2 times negative Y is negative 2y. And then 2 times. 4 is 8 and then we'll let that equalMoreAnd then 2 times negative Y is negative 2y. And then 2 times. 4 is 8 and then we'll let that equal zero. And there's my general form so if you got a fraction multiply. By what's in the denominator.
These are the two methods to finding the equation of a line when given a point and the slope: Substitution method = plug in the slope and the (x, y) point values into y = mx + b, then solve for b. Point-slope form = y − y 1 = m ( x − x 1 ) , where ( x 1 , y 1 ) is the point given and m is the slope given.
The general form ax+by+c=0 is one of the many different forms you can write linear functions in. Other ones include the slope intercept form y=mx+b or slope-point form. We can convert the linear function among different forms.
And let's calculate the value of b negative five times negative four that's positive twenty. So weMoreAnd let's calculate the value of b negative five times negative four that's positive twenty. So we have three is equal to twenty over three plus b.
