The slope is defined as the ratio of the "rise" divided by the "run" between two points on a line, or in other words, the ratio of the altitude change to the horizontal distance between any two points on the line. Given two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on a line, the slope m of the line isFor equation:5x + 4y = 8the two intercepts are: (0,2) and (8/5,0)The slope = (2-0)/(0-8/5) = - 10/8 = - 5/4
1/8 " - 11/2".
-8
Yes, 2y = 8 is a linear function. 2y = 8 is the same as y=8/2, or y=4, which is a vertical line.
(2, 11)
We know that the line passes through points (2, 2) and (0, 10) (since the y-intercept is 10).Using these two points, we can find the slope of the line,m = (10 - 2)/(0 - 2) = 8/-2 = 4/-1 = -4.Now by using the slope, m = -4, and the y-intercept, 10, we can write the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b which isy = -4x + 10.
Points: (2, 8) and (2, 8) Slope works out as 1
If you mean points of (8, 4) and (8, -2) then the line has no slope and it is a vertical straight line parallel to the y axis
y = 2x - 2
For the line 2x + y = 8 , the slope equals ( -2 ) so the required slope of the line which is perpendicular to it is equal to (+1/2 )
Slope, m, equals (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). Slope is (8-2)/(8-2) or 1.
-2 or written as a slope - 2/1
Slope, m, equals (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). Slope is (8-2)/(8-2) or 1. [Copied from answer to a related question]
If you mean: -8x+y = 2 then y = 8x+2 and the line parallel to it will have the same slope of 8 but with a different y intercept.
(3--4)/2--6) = 7/8 which is the slope of the line.
Points: (1, 2) and (3, 8) Slope: 3
It will have the same slope which is 2
