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.
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:

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.
In general form they would be the same. So you can use whichever you prefer. So I'm going to say yMoreIn general form they would be the same. So you can use whichever you prefer. So I'm going to say y minus 6. Equals now my slope is up here negative eight over three times x minus X1 was 1..
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.
So let's start by writing the equation in point slope form. So all we need to do is replace y1 withMoreSo let's start by writing the equation in point slope form. So all we need to do is replace y1 with positive five M with negative 2 and X1 with negative four.
Point-slope is the general form y-y₁=m(x-x₁) for linear equations. It emphasizes the slope of the line and a point on the line (that is not the y-intercept). We can rewrite an equation in point-slope form to be in slope-intercept form y=mx+b, to highlight the same line's slope and y-intercept.
