Explanation:

Finding Slope from a Graph relies on knowing that Slope is a ratio between the difference in the y-values divided by the difference in the x-values. When finding the slope, you must first find the difference in y-values in the graph. To Find Slope from a Graph you find two points on the line. You then count how many spaces you have to go up by or down by. If you go up, the y-difference is positive and if you go down the y-difference is negative.You must then find the difference in the x-values in the graph.You use the same two points as when you found the y-difference, except this time you could how many spaces you go left or right. If you go right, the x-difference is positive and if you go down the x-difference is negative. The last step is to divide the difference in the y-values by the difference in the x-values. Anytime you Find a Slope from a Graph you must reduce the fraction if it can be reduced.
