The point-slope equation of the line that passes through the point (2,1) and has the slope 5, is y−1=5(x−2).
The generic equation for point-slope form is y - y 1 = m ( x - x 1 ) , where m is the slope and x 1 and y 1 are the given point.
For this equation, m=5, x 1 = 2 , and y 1 = 1 .
The equation in point-slope form is:
y−1=5(x−2)
