What is the point-slope form of a line?
 
Find the point-slope form of the line that satisfies the following: Slope 4, passing through (-3,1).



that how it looks

anonymous · Answer

this is point slope form 

y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )


slope
              y   -   y1
m    =    --------  
              x   -   x1

anonymous · Answer

y  -  y1    =  m  ( x   -    x1  )
                    ^
                    slope

Adding to mth3v4's response, x1 and y1 are the x and y values of a point on the line. The point you have is (-3, 1). So, to have the line written in that form, you would just substitute in your values.

Provide the class with two problems.  The first should provide a point and a slope.  The second should provide two points.  For each, have your classmates find: 1) the point-slope form of the line and 2) the slope-intercept form of the line.  Also, state the value of the slope and intercept for each.

That should probably go up as another question! Haha!

I hate math 
that last thing I sent you was the last bit of my discussion question
