Question

What's the formula for slope?​

Answer 1

Below

Explanation:

There are several formulae for slope:

1. The Slope Formula
2. Rise / Run
3. Change

The slope formula:

`\sf{m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)}`

Are you given two points? If so, plug them in the formula!

Rise/Run:

`\sf{m=(Rise)/(Run)}`

An easy way to compute the slope when you have a graph. If you know the rise (how many units the line goes up/down) and the run (how many units the line goes right/left), you can compute the slope using this easy formula.

Change:

`\sf{m=(change~in~x)/(change~in~y)}`

Divide the change in x by the change in y.

`\rule{350}{5}`

Answer 2

see explanation

Explanation:

the slope formula is

m =
`(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )`

where (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) are points on the line
