Hi,

Using the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line y = mx + b

  where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.

line through point P(6, –1) with slope 4.

   y = 4x + b    ||Using (x,y) ordered pair (6,-1) to solve for b

  -1+=+4%2A6+%2B+b

   -25 = b

   y = 4x -25   || EQ of Line in slope-intercept form
