Solving an Slope Intercept Equation

Solving an Slope Intercept equation Homework: Due Friday, Nov. 23. On you blog solve the point-slope equation above (slope = -2 & the X1,Y1 point is 8,4) (y-4)=-2(x-8) +4 +4 Y=-2 (x-4) Y= x-2

Slope Intercept Form

During the last week in Standard Math class, we have started learning a new formula in the system of equations. The formula is Point Slope form. This Formula is very practical for using when you just know the slope of the graph and its y and x intercept. Other than Point form and standard form, the slope intercept form may look difficult on the first look but when solving it becomes very easy. The definition of point slope form is. Point-Slope Equation of a Line y – y1 = m(x – x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line. Point-slope is the form used most often when finding the equation of a line. After finding the solution you would put it in a graph and trying to find what is a slope and both y and x intercept.
