PLEASSSEEEE ANSWER RIGHT AWAY I DON'T WANT TO FAIL!!!!!

What is the difference between slope-intercept form of a line, y = mx + b and point-slope form of a line $$?

Discuss the information you would have to put in for each form. For example, both forms require you to put in slope.

Answer: Point slope form has a coordinate point and slope intercept form has the slope and the y intercept.

Step-by-step explanation: in point slope for the equation is (y-y2)=m(x-x2). In this the y2 and x2 are points and you would ignore the minus sign to plot the point.

For slope intercept form, the equation is y=mx+b, where m is the slope of the graph and b is they y intercept meaning where x is zero. Hope this helps.
