Learn how to write the equation of a line given a point and slope

The video tutorial explains how to write an equation in slope-intercept form, Y = MX + B. It covers the concepts of slope (M) and Y-intercept (B), and demonstrates how to find the Y-intercept using a given point on the line. The tutorial walks through the process of solving for B and finalizing the equation.

What does the 'M' represent in the slope-intercept form equation Y = MX + B?

• Y-intercept

• Slope

• Y-coordinate

• X-coordinate

In the equation Y = MX + B, what does the 'B' represent?

• Slope

• Y-intercept

• Origin

• X-coordinate

If you have a slope of 5/6, what is the next step to find the Y-intercept when given a point on the line?

• Multiply the slope by the Y-coordinate

• Substitute the point's coordinates into the equation

• Add the slope to the Y-coordinate

• Divide the slope by the X-coordinate

How do you solve for B once you have substituted the point's coordinates into the equation?

• Add the slope to the Y-coordinate

• Subtract the X-coordinate from the slope

• Isolate B by performing arithmetic operations

• Multiply the slope by the X-coordinate

What is the final step after finding the values of M and B in the slope-intercept form?

• Check if the equation is quadratic

• Find another point on the line

• Write the complete equation using the values

• Graph the equation
