What does the term 'point-slope form' refer to in linear equations?

Back

Point-slope form refers to a way of writing the equation of a line using a specific point on the line and the slope.

What is the significance of the point (x1, y1) in the point-slope form?

Back

The point (x1, y1) is a specific point through which the line passes, and it is used to anchor the equation.
