Question 24124: When would you want to use the slope-intercept versus the point-slope form of a line?

the point-slope form is convenient when you are asked to find the equation of a line. This formula, however, is not particularly useful for sketching the graph of a line. The form that is better suited to graphing linear equations is the slope intercept form of the equation of the line.
I hope this clears things up for you. I really wasn't exactly sure of what you were asking. but If I had to answer your question on a test this would be my answer, and I am almost positive I would be correct. Well, the way you stated it anyway. If you need something further, please feel free to ask.
