1 answer

In the point-slope equation \( y - Y_1 = m (X - X_1) \):

  1. \( Y_1 \) represents the y-coordinate of a specific point on the line.
  2. \( m \) represents the slope of the line.
  3. \( X_1 \) represents the x-coordinate of that specific point on the line.

To summarize:

  • \( Y_1 \) = y-coordinate
  • \( m \) = slope
  • \( X_1 \) = x-coordinate
