Slope intercept form calculator is used to transform the equation of a line into slope intercept form. In this form we have slope and y –intercept. The slope intercept form of a straight line is y = mx + b. Here, m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept of the line.

Example 1: Find the equation of a line with slope = 4 and y intercept = 2.

Solution 1: For the given equation of a line , we will follow these steps:-

Step 1:- Label the values which are given in the problem

              Slope = m = 4 and y intercept = b = 2

Step 2: Now plug these values in the formula y = mx + b

            y = (4) x + 2

Step 3: The slope intercept form of the line with given values

             y = 4x + 2

Example 2: Write the equation of a line 2x + y – 4 = 0 into slope intercept form.

Solution 2: For the given equation of a line , we will follow these steps:-

Step 1:- The given equation is

            2x + y – 4 =0

Step 2:- We know the slope – intercept for of a line that is

          y = mx + c

Step 3:- First shift the constant to right side of the equality

               2x + y = 4

Step 4: Shift the x term to right side of the equality

              y = (-2) x + 4

I just want you to know how great Brinda has been in tutoring me on probability. She is patient and very knowledgeable in all concepts. I look forward to many more sessions with her. I appreciate her help and the great work that Tutor Pace is doing.

Your tutor has been such an inspiration to me as I have difficulty getting some of the physics concepts down and truly understanding them. She takes the time to fully explain each and every aspect of any problem I might ask for help and always with encouragement and humor.
