Slope-Intercept Form In Section 2.1, we learned that an equation of the form Ax By C (where A and B are not both zero) represents a line in a rectangular coordinate system.An equation of a line written in this way is in standard form. In this section, we will learn a new form, called the slope-intercept form, which is useful in determining the slope and y-intercept of a line. Concepts 1. Slope-Intercept Form 2. The Point-Slope Formula 3. Equations of a Line: A Summary
