Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
y = mx + b where m= slope of the line, b= y intercept
7/2 = m(4) + b
b = 7/2 -4m
y = mx +7/2-4m in slope intercept form,
or
y-7/2 = m(x-4) in point slope form
or
2y -7 = mx -4m
mx -2y = 4m-7 in standard form
mx -2y -4m+7 = 0 in general form
when you know the slope, plug that in place of m and then there's a unique line equation
if slope is undefined, the line equation is: x=4, a vertical line
if slope = 0, then the line is y=7/2, a horizontal flat line
if slope = 1
x-2y =-3 is the equation, a line with 45 degree angle to the x axis
