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.

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 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.

Explore slope-intercept form of linear equations with Khan Academy's interactive lessons and practice exercises.

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 …
