Write an Equation Given the Slope and a Point
When given the slope of a line and a point that lies on it, we can easily write the equation of the line using the point-slope form. This form, \(y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\), utilizes the given point's coordinates, \((x_1, y_1)\), and the slope, \(m\), to express the relationship between \(x\) and \(y\) on the line. By substituting the known values into the equation, we can determine the specific equation that describes the line's behavior. This method is straightforward and effective for quickly determining the equation of a line with known slope and point.
