What two things do you NEED to write an equation in point-slope form?

• a slope and a y-intercept

• a slope and a x-intercept

• a slope and a point

• two points on the line

For the equation
y + 5 = 2(x - 1),
the line has a slope of 2 and contains what point?

• (1, 5)

• (-1, -5)

• (1, -5)

• (-1, 5)

Write the equation in point-slope form for the line that contains the points
(-2, -3), (4, 3)

• y - 3 = 1(x - 2)

• y + 3 = 1(x + 2)

• y -3 = -1(x + 2)

• y + 3 = -1(x - 2)

Write the equation of the line shown in point slope form.

• y - 7 = 3/4 (x - 0)

• y - 0 = -3/4 (x - 7)

• y + 4 = -3/4 (x + 4)

• y - 4 = -3/4 (x - 4)
