Which form of a linear equation immediately reveals the slope and a specific point on the line?

A

Point-Slope Form

B

Slope-Intercept Form

C

Standard Form

D

Intercept Form

Correct Answer: A

Choice A is the correct answer. Definition of forms.

  1. Point-Slope: y−y1=m(x−x1)y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) shows mm and (x1,y1)(x_1, y_1).
  2. Slope-Intercept: Shows mm and y-intercept (0,b)(0, b).
  3. Standard: Shows intercepts easily, but not slope directly.

💡 Strategic Tip: The name tells you what it shows!

Choice B is incorrect because it shows the y-intercept specifically, not any general point. Choice C is incorrect because it hides the slope. Choice D is incorrect because it shows two intercepts.
