how to solve a slope

3 answers

To solve for the slope, you need two points on a line. Let's say you have the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).

1. Use the formula: slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). This formula represents the change in y-coordinates divided by the change in x-coordinates between the two points.

2. Substitute the values of the coordinates into the formula.

3. Simplify the equation to find the slope.

For example, let’s say you have the points (-2, 3) and (4, 7).

Using the formula, slope (m) = (7 - 3) / (4 - (-2)) = 4 / 6 = 2/3.

So the slope of the line passing through the points (-2, 3) and (4, 7) is 2/3.
