Question

How do you write an equation in point slope form of the line that contains the given point (2,3) and has the given slope 2?

Answer 1

In general, given a point `(x_0,y_0)` and a slope of `m`
the point-slope form of the line is
`(y-y_0) = m(x-x_0)`

For the given case:
`(y-3) = 2(x-2)`
which can be simplified as
`y = 2x-1`
