Take notes on the following topics.

Section 3-5  Lines in the Coordinate Plane

Slope-intercept form (p. 152) The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Standard form of a linear equation (p. 153) The standard form of a linear equation is Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are integers and A and B are not both zero.

Point-slope form (p. 154) The point-slope form for a nonvertical line with slope m and through point (x1, y1) is y y1 = m(x x1).
