6. Ultimate Goal:
With given information...
Know the name of the line,
and be able to graph it

7. y = mx + b
y = mx + b

Point-Slope Form

9. Variations of Point-Slope Form:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - y0 = m(x - x0)
y - y = m(x - x )

10. Given:
point: (-1,3)
slope: 3
y - y1 = m(x - x1)

11. Given:
Given:
point: (-3,-1) slope: 2 point: (-4,-3) slope: 2
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - y1 = m(x - x1)

12. DO IT BACKWARDS!
Given: Point-Slope form, Find: slope & point

13. BACKWARDS!
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
