can anyone help me on finding slopes of a line?
What information are you given?
If you have two points with coordinates (x1,y1) and (x2,y2), the slope is
(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
thank you. that's exactly what i need to know. thnx!
yay shes corret and it is also simply easy graph those corrdinates and just count (rise/run)pointA and pointB
Absolutely! I can assist you in finding the slope of a line. To determine the slope of a line, you need to have two points on the line. Let's call these points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2). The slope (m) of the line can be calculated using the formula:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
To find the slope, follow these steps:
1. Identify two points on the line and note their coordinates (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).
2. Subtract the y-coordinates of the two points: (y2 - y1).
3. Subtract the x-coordinates of the two points: (x2 - x1).
4. Divide the result from step 2 by the result from step 3: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).
5. Simplify the fraction if necessary. For instance, if the result is 2/3, leave it as 2/3. However, if the result is an integer, write it as a whole number.
That's it! Now you know how to find the slope of a line. If you provide me with the coordinates of two points, I can help you calculate the slope.
