Finding a Point Using Slope Formula

Find the y-intercept of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope:
 (-2, -1); m= -3

• b = -6

• b = -7

• b = 6

• b = 7

Remember equations are written as y=mx+b. Create the equation by finding the slope from rise/run and the y-intercept by looking at where it crosses the y-axis. You can also create an equation by making a List & Spreadsheet, Data & Statistics, Menu 4, 6, 1.

Which equation is the point-slope form of the line that goes through the point (6, 1) and has a slope of -3?

• y - 6 = -3(x - 1)

• y + 6 = -3(x + 1)

• y - 1 = -3(x - 6)

• y + 1 = -3(x + 3)

Which equation in point-slope form is correct for the graph shown? Hint: Use the two points to find the slope before writing the equation.
