Question

amistre64 · Answer

standard form is:  Ax + By = C,  where ABC are integers and A is not negative.

amistre64 · Answer

y - yo = m(x-xo)

y= mx -m xo + yo

-mx + y= -m xo + yo

mx - y= m xo - yo  should suffice

amistre64 · Answer

point slope form uses a slope, m, and a point (xo,yo)

hrhsbull · Answer

its y-y1=slope(x-x1)   i googled it lol thanks anyway

amistre64 · Answer

the subindex used is immaterial :)  as long as you know what part of the form identifies the point, and what part identifies the slope; the rest of it is moot
