Slope intercept formula

y = mx + b

m = slope

m = 2

Substitute in the given points (6, 4) and solve for b

4 = 2*6 + b

b = -8

Therefore substitute into the slope intercept formula

y = 2x - 8
.

y-4 = 2(x - 6)
y = 2(x - 6) + 4
y = 2x - 12 + 4
y = 2x - 8 ----> this is the equation of the line

y - 4 = 2 * (x - 6) That is standard point slope form.
