This application presents you with an opportunity to practice finding the equation of a straight line given the slope of the line and a point on the line. Your answer should be expressed in the form y = mx + b.

Try finding each equation using paper and pencil. Then use the interactive application to check your work. To use the application you must click on the "play" button and enter an ordered pair and the value of the slope in the boxes provided. You can also click on a point on the grid through which you want the line to pass. If you choose to enter your values into the boxes, you may have to hit the "enter" key after you enter your values in order to refresh the application.
