Point Slope Form

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$

Multiple Choice

Which of these represents point-slope form of a linear equation?

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Ax + By = C

y = mx + b

y=kx

Multiple Choice

Write the equation of the line

in Point-Slope form that goes through

the point (10,5) and has a slope of -3

y - 5 = -3(x - 10)

y= -3x + 35

y + 5= -3(x + 10)

y= -3x - 35

Multiple Choice

Write the equation in point-slope form

of the line that passes through the point

(4, -7) and has a slope of -1/4.

y + 7 = -1/4(x - 4)

y - 4 = -1/4(x + 7)

y + 7 = 4(x - 4)

y - 7 = -1/4(x - 4)

Remember to keep all the signs & simplify

NOTE: when you have a negative

x_{1\ }or\ y_1

Multiple Choice

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope:
(-2, -1); m= -3

y + 1 = -3(x - 2)

y + 1 = -3(x + 2)

y - 1 = 3(x - 1)

y + 2 = -3(x + 1)

Let's take a look the other way...

If I am given an equations can I identify the slope and point?

Multiple Choice

The line with the equation

y + 1 = -3(x - 5),

contains the point (5, -1)

and has a slope of _______.

-1

-3

Multiple Choice

For the equation
y - 3 = 2(x + 4),
which of the following is true?

The line has m = 2 passing through the point (4, -3)

The line has m = 2 passing through the point (3, -4)

The line has m = 2 passing through the point (-4, 3)

The line has m = 2 passing through the point (-3, 4)

Point Slope Form

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$
