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.
The general form of the equation of a line 𝑎 𝑥 + 𝑏 𝑦 + 𝑐 = 0 is closely related to its standard form: 𝐴 𝑥 + 𝐵 𝑦 = 𝐶 , where 𝐴 , 𝐵 , and 𝐶 are integers and 𝐴 is nonnegative. We can convert the standard form into general form by subtracting the constant 𝐶 from both sides of the equation.
So I'm going to leave the answer in this form. So it's an ax plus b y equals c format. So that's howMoreSo I'm going to leave the answer in this form. So it's an ax plus b y equals c format. So that's how you can convert from slope intercept form to standard form.
So we have three is equal to twenty over three plus b. Now to solve for b it's helpful if we can getMoreSo we have three is equal to twenty over three plus b. Now to solve for b it's helpful if we can get rid of this fraction i'm gonna multiply everything by three.
Since we have a graph, we can find the slope using rise over run, 6 2 = 3 and the y-intercept is (0, 6). The equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, is y = 3 x + 6 . To change the equation to general (standard) form, subtract the x-term to move it over to the other side.
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.
Slope-intercept form (y=mx+b) of linear equations highlights the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b) of a line.
We can rewrite an equation in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b) to be in standard form (Ax+By=C) instead. In this example, we rewrite the slope-intercept equation y=2/3x+4/7 in standard form.
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.
