Question

identify the meaning of the variables in the point - slope form of a line. m (x1, y1) (x, y) any point on the line a given point on the line the slope of the line

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In the point - slope form of a line $y - y_1=m(x - x_1)$, $m$ represents the slope of the line. $(x_1,y_1)$ is a given fixed point on the line and $(x,y)$ represents any point on the line.

Answer:

m: the slope of the line
$(x_1,y_1)$: a given point on the line
$(x,y)$: any point on the line
