Learn how to find the slope-intercept equation of a line from two points on that line. If you haven't read it yet, you might want to start with our introduction to slope-intercept form.

When we have a linear equation in slope-intercept form, we can quickly find the slope and y -intercept of the corresponding line. This also allows us to graph it.

Learn how to write an equation in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b) for the line with a slope of -3/4 that goes through the point (0,8). We identify the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) to create our equation y = ( …

Worked examples of finding the slope of a line given its equation, using many forms of equations.

Point-slope is the general form y-y₁=m (x-x₁) for linear equations. It emphasizes the slope of the line and a point on the line (that is not the y-intercept). We can rewrite an equation in point-slope form to be in …

Find the equation of the line. Use exact numbers. For a negative y-intercept, type a negative sign.

Learn to write equations in slope-intercept form for three different lines. Created by Sal Khan.

Slope-intercept form (y=mx+b) of linear equations highlights the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b) of a line. Watch this video to learn more about it and see some examples.

Learn to convert equations like 4x + 2y = -8 into slope-intercept form. Created by Sal Khan and Monterey Institute for Technology and Education.

There are three major forms of linear equations: point-slope form, standard form, and slope-intercept form. We review all three in this article.
