How to put into slope intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are given to different points on a slope you can find the slope by putting in the equation of

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

then pick one of the two points and put it in the point-slope formula with the new founded slope

y-y1=m(x-x1)

and then solve for y to get into the form of

y=mx+b m being the slope and b being the y-intercept

-If you are given the slope and just one intercept then just simply put it in the point-slope intercept

Example

Say you're given (-2,-2) and (4,1)

find the slope

x1=-2  y1=-2 and x2=4 y2=1

(1-(-2))/(4-(-2))

=3/6=1/2 this is the m

now put it in the point slope form

y-(-2)=1/2(x-(-2))

y+2=1/2x+1

  -2     -2

y=1/2x-1
