How do we write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form?
The equation for slope-intercept form is y=mx+b. Y is the point of the y1 or y2, m is the slope, x is the point of x1 or x2 and b is the y-intercept. If you had the two points (1,1) and (2,2) you then will have to find the slope first which is 1. Then you will have substitute the x1 and y1 or x2 and y2. if you substitute x1 and y1 you will get 1=1(1)+b. If you substitute x2 and y2 you will get 2=1(2)+b. Then you solve for b. For the first equation b equals 0. And for the second equation b equals 0. Then the equation overall is y=1x+0 or y=1x.
