In order to get the slope for any graph, you can just take two points (x,y) and use the formula m = (y2 -- y1) / (x2 -- x1). For example, you can use the points (10,30) and (40,50) take the second y value and the first and subtract them from each other and divide that by the second x and the first x value. The answer should be 2/3 and this should work with any two points you choose.

Hello there,

To calculate slope all you need to do is find two points on the graph.
(a,b) (c,d)
Then you use the formula to find slope.
d minus b divided by c minus a.

Hope I helped :)
