Enter given data in the input box shown below.Then select Calculate.
Point 1 ( x₁ , y₁ )
Point 2 ( x₂ , y₂ )



ANSWER: y = x +
written in standard form, also known as slope-intercept form.

---

x y + = 0
written in general form of the equation of a line and in its simpliest form.

---

Formula Recall
y = mx + b ; Equation of a line in slope form equation 1

---

mx - y + b = 0; re-writing equation 1 in the general form Ax + By + C = 0 equation 2

---

slope, m =
slope , m = (y₂ - y₁₎/ (x₂ - x₁)

---

using point (x₂,y₂) and slope, m, substitutes its values in Equation 1
= * + b ; slope form equation 1
b =
