Question

Would I use the equation y2-y1
m= ------
x2-x1

to find an equation of a line?

Answer 1

yes. point slope formula

Answer 2

to find the slope of the line.***

Answer 3

so you would find "m" from y = mx+b

Answer 4

Ohhhh so it would be

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

?? Do you happen to know if there is a major difference between those two equations ( One in my question and teh one in this reply?)

Answer 5

gotcha. Thank youuu :)

Answer 6

they are the same equation

Answer 7

divide both sides by (x-x1) and u get the other form

Answer 8

Thats where I got confused :) Thank yous :)
