1.   For a nonvertical line through the point at (x1, y1) with slope m, the point-slope form of a linear equation is ______.
    A. y - x1 = m(xy1) B. y - y1 = m - (xx1)
    C. x - x1 = m(y - y1) D. y - y1m(xx1)
    Hint

  2.   Which information is enough to write a linear equation in point-slope form?
    A. the slope of the line B. the x-coordinates of two points on the line
    C. the  x- and  y-coordinates of two points on the line D. the y-coordinates of two points on the line
    Hint

  3.   Write the point–slope form of an equation for the line passing through

    A. B.
    C. D.
    Hint

  4.   A line passes through the origin of a coordinate system. The slope of the line is 0. What is the equation of this line?
    A. y = –x B. y = x
    C. x = 0 D. y = 0
    Hint

  5.   The line in the graph represents Pete's increasing math grade. Find the equation of the line in point-slope form. Use (4, 64) for (x1, y1).
   
    A. y – 4 = 2(x – 64)
