THEN FINALLY a combo of a virtual worksheet and it explained to me how I did it wrong again... and well rested brain... THEN watching this video again... and I'm like....

    Your videos are very helpful! I honestly don't know why there are so many hate comments on the software. You're explaining everything perfectly and there are people complaining about COLORS. It's not very distracting at all, it just helps separate everything in order. I used to look at Kahn Academy and not like it at all, if im going to be honest. I think it might have just been my annoyance to get the math over with that I didn't actually concentrate on what the videos were actually saying. The only reason you don't understand is because you're rushing or you're not willing to learn (personal experience) But what im trying to say is that your videos helped me so much over the years. Thank you.

    My school teaches this a little different. Instead of using a and b for points we use y1 and x1, only the 1s are tiny little 1s by the letter but I don't how to type those. For the slope formula we use y2-y1 over x2-x1. For homework, some of the questions give us two sets of points, for example (5,1) and (3,-7) and we have to use these but it doesn't tell us which set is the ones and which are the twos and I'm not sure how to tell. Can someone help me with this?

    It would help if the variable b, in the point-slope formula, y-b=m(x-a) was clarified to infact be the same variable b that is in the slope-intercept formula, y = mx+b. It took me rearranging the formula on my own to figure out that when a, the second point's x value, is zero the formula yeilds y-b=mx, aka the y intercept formula, proving the b is the same. This was very confusing and seemingly ambiguous from the video.

    Why is this not making sense to me? I keep getting the same answer for the problem I'm working but it doesn't satisfy the line. In this example if you were to substitute "x" for 0 then y=19 but that isn't a point on the given line. Yet this seems to be the correct equation for the line. PLEASE HELP

      Jayson Grey well here you do not need to find out the values of x and y. U just have to find the equation of a line. Let me give u an example:- suppose I have m=2, y1=3 and x1=4
      Then u just have to put the value of them in the equation and u will get 5=2x-y. THAT'S IT! That's the equation of the line. Hope u know the first degree equation ax+by+c=0.
      Hope this helps!

      Slope is defined as rise over run.
      Two points might be (x,y)(x',y')
      Rise is y'-y (delta y)
      Run is x'-x (delta x)
      Slope will be delta y (rise) divided by delta x (run).
