Can someone please help me with the following problems? I do not have the formula for finding the slope of a line. These are not homework they are for a portfolio.
Find the slope of each of the following lines.
1. y=-5-17
2. 10 + y = x
3. y = -2x - 5
4. 4x + y = 0
5. 3x - 4y = 16
6. -2y - 16 = x
7. y = -11x - 3
8. y = 13x - 14
9. 2y = 2x = 18
10. 6x = 5y = 10
Thank you very much if you are able to help.
Why would you include these problems in your portfolio if you can't solve them?
I don't know. We were just told to solve them. We were not given a formula.
y = mx+b
m=slope
Just get it in that form to find what m is.
y=mx=b
m=slop
The formula is actually simple to remeber if you've learned it.
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=constant(y-intercept)
or y=a+bx
it's essentially the same thing, just in a differnt, more current form.
in this one,
a=constant
b=slope
oh, slope is also your rise/run which is y/x
y=a+bx
basic knowladge just put diffrently in more simpler form would be
in what a= constant
in what b=slope :)
