Please return later. August 7, 2008: Corinne: Last night I asked Colan to give me the slope-intercept form of a line, y = mx + b, and the equation for the slope of a line, ytwo - yone over xtwo - xone = m, he knew both of these equations. I rewrote for him the equation for the slope to be the point slope form of the equation for a line, y - yone = m(x - xone), and I asked him to make this last equation look like the slope intercept form. …
