Point Slope Form of Linear Equations

Given the slope m = 5 and the point (1, 1), what is the equation of the line in point-slope form?

• y = 1 - 5(x - 1)

• y - 1 = 5x

• y = 5x + 1

• y - 1 = 5(x - 1)

What is the point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through the point (2, -4) with a slope of -1?

• y + 4 = -1(x - 2)

• y - 4 = -1(x + 2)

• y - 4 = 1(x - 2)

• y + 4 = 1(x + 2)

What is the point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through the point (3, 1) with a slope of 1/2?

• y - 1 = 1/2(x - 3)

• y - 3 = 1/2(x - 1)

• y + 1 = 1/2(x + 3)

• y + 3 = 1/2(x + 1)

Which of these represents point-slope form of a linear equation?

• y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

• Ax + By = C

• y = mx + b

• y=kx
