Point Slope Form - Definition & Examples

We know two ways to express a line:

• In slope-intercept form: $$y=mx+b$$
• In point-slope form: $$y-y_0 = m(x-x_0)$$

If we expand the point-slope form, we can manipulate it to look like the slope-intercept form. To do this, distribute $m$ and isolate $y$.
