2.4 Writing Equations of Lines
The slope intercept form of the equation of
a line is π¦ = ππ₯ + π where π is the
___________ and π is the _____________.
Slope-Intercept Form
If you are given the slope and y-intercept
of a line, you can find an equation of the
line by substituting the values of π and π
into the slope-intercept form.

Examples
Sometimes it is necessary to calculate the
slope before you can write an equation.

Point-Slope Form
The point-slope form of the equation of a line is
π¦ β π¦1 = π(π₯ β π₯1 ), where (π₯1 , π¦1 ) are the
coordinates of a point on the line and π is the
slope of the line.
Using a previous example:
Write an equation of a line through 6, β2 with
a slope of 4 using point-slope form.
