slope (m ) = , y - 1 =

The equation of a line in ' point- slope form 'is
y - b = m (x - a)( m is the slope and (a , b ) a point on the line )
To calculate m use the ' gradient formula'
m = (y₂ - y₁ )/(x₂ - x₁ )
let (x₁, y₁ ) = (2 , 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (14 , 31) ← values chosen from table
m = (31 - 1 )/(14 - 2 ) = =
equation in point- slope form using m = and (a,b )= (2 , 1)
y - 1 = ( x - 2)
The equation is
4x-2y=-2
4x=2y-2
4x+2=2y
2x+1=y
4x-2y=-2
4x=2y-2
4x+2=2y
2x+1=y
