Slope intercept form to standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

formula for slope intercept form

you do y2-y1=m(x-x1)

you have to simplify that till you get to the y=mx+b

then move the x over and stuff

your standard should look like this

ax+by=c

if you need help finding the slope of the equation do y2-y1 over x2-x1

here is an example of converting slope intercept to standard

question:write an equation of a line in standard form passing through 1,1 and 2,-2

1)find your slope

y2-y1/x2-x1

1+2 over 1-2

m=-3

now write in point slope first

y-y1=m(x-x1)

simplify to get

y-1=-3x+3 this is your slope intercept form

now we have to convert it to standard

subtract -1 from both sides

move the x over

etc

getting

3x+y=4 this is your standard form

in conclusion is take a whole process you first got to find point slope then convert to slope intercept then standard.but if they give you the slope intercept form skip the point slope part and solve!

i dont get it. where are the "descriptions"?
