Point slope Form To Slope Intercept Form Unit 6 : Day 7 Point slope Form To Slope Intercept Form
You now know two types of linear equations! Point Slope y – y1 = m(x – x1) Slope Intercept y = mx + b
Here is an equation in point slope form: y - 3 = 2(x - 5) y - 3 = 2(x - 5) I want this equation in slope intercept form! How can we use algebra to write this equation in slope intercept form?
Steps for Converting Point Slope → Slope Intercept Distribute the slope. y – y1 = m(x – x1) Get y alone.
Example 1: Convert to Slope Intercept Form y - 3 = 2(x - 5) Distribute the slope. Get y alone.
Example 2: Convert to Slope Intercept Form y + 4 = -3(x - 2)
Example 3: Convert to Slope Intercept Form You must write the equation first! A line with slope -2 that passes through the point (5, -1). Distribute the slope. Get y alone.
Example 4: Convert to Slope Intercept Form You must write the equation first! A line with slope 5 that passes through the point (-2, -3).
Example 5: Convert to Slope Intercept Form Choose a point on the graph and find the slope. Then write an equation in point slope form. Then, convert to slope intercept form.
