y 2 5 8 11
Let (x1, y1) be (4, 2) and (x2, y2) be (8, 5). Choose any two points.
Use the slope formula.
The slope of the line is .34
Because the slope of line is constant, it is possible to use any point on a line and the slope of the line to write an equation of the line in point-slope form.
Method A Point-Slope Form
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
Substitute.
Simplify.
Solve for y.
Distribute.
Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form with slope –5 through (1, 3).
Check It Out! Example 3a
The equation of the slope is y = –5x + 8.
y – y1 = m(x – x1)
y – (3) = –5(x – 1)
y – 3 = –5(x – 1)
y – 3 = –5(x – 1)
y – 3 = –5x + 5
y = –5x + 8
Method B Slope-Intercept Form
Check It Out! Example 3bWrite the equation of the line in slope-intercept form through (–2, –3) and (2, 5).
First, find the slope. Let (x1, y1) be (–2,–3) and (x2, y2) be (2, 5).
y = mx + b
5 = (2)2 + b
5 = 4 + b
1 = b
Rewrite the equation using m and b.
y = mx + b y = 2x + 1
The equation of the line is y = 2x + 1.
Example 5A: Writing Equations of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
Parallel lines have equal slopes.
Use y – y1 = m(x – x1) with (x1, y1) = (5, 2).
Distributive property.
Simplify.
m = 1.8
y – 2 = 1.8(x – 5)
y – 2 = 1.8x – 9
y = 1.8x – 7
Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.
parallel to y = 1.8x + 3 and through (5, 2)
Example 5B: Writing Equations of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
Distributive property.
Simplify.
Use y – y1 = m(x – x1). y + 2 is equivalent to y – (–2).
Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.
perpendicular to and through (9, –2)
The slope of the given line is , so the slope of
the perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal, .

Example 4A: Entertainment ApplicationThe table shows the rents and selling prices of properties from a game. Selling Price
($)Rent ($)
75 9
90 12
160 26
250 44
Express the rent as a function of the selling price.
Let x = selling price and y = rent.
Find the slope by choosing two points. Let (x1, y1) be (75, 9) and (x2, y2) be (90, 12).
To find the equation for the rent function, use point-slope form.
Use the data in the first row of the table.
Simplify.
y – y1 = m(x – x1)

Example 4B: Entertainment Application
Graph the relationship between the selling price and the rent. How much is the rent for a property with a selling price of $230?
To find the rent for a property, use the graph or substitute its selling price of $230 into the function.
Substitute.
The rent for the property is $40.
y = 46 – 6
y = 40
Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.
parallel to y = 5x – 3 and through (1, 4)
Parallel lines have equal slopes.
