Use: (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) to find the slope. Use: y -y1 = m(x -x1) to find the slope intercept equation whereas m is the slope.
its the tangent of the angle the slope makes with the x-axis
The slope of a straight line equation is: y2-y1/x2-x1
y = {slope}x + {y intercept}
By differentiating the answer and plugging in the x value along the curve, you are finding the exact slope of the curve at that point. In effect, this would be the slope of the tangent line, as a tangent line only intersects another at one point. To find the equation of a tangent line to a curve, use the point slope form (y-y1)=m(x-x1), m being the slope. Use the differential to find the slope and use the point on the curve to plug in for (x1, y1).
It shows the relationship of y in terms of x. [y = (yIntercept) + ((slope)*(x))] [slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)]
There is no slope nor intercept because there is no equation, simply an expression.
Slope is rise over run, so if you have a rise of 2 and a run of 4, then the slope is 0.5. If the table gives rises and runs, then just follow the two until they meet, that should be the slope.
You can write it either in standard form (ax + by = c) or in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)
Select two distinct values of X, designated X1 and X2, from the table, read the corresponding values Y1 and Y2 from the table, and calculate the slope from the formula: slope = (Y2 - Y1)/(X2 - X1)
Without the inclusion of an equality sign and not knowing the plus or minus values of the given terms it can't be considered to be a straight line equation
take two ordered pairs. then do difference of y's divided by difference of x's and that is your slope
first of all, i dont see how slope and yintercept has anything to do with shopping. usually in an equation, y= mx+b, m stands for slope, and b is the y-intercept. x and y are just x and y. If the equation is mixed up, and is not in y=mx+b format, you need to solve to get y on one side, the slope, x, and whatever the presented constant is (which is the y-intercept) on the other side. hope this helps.
The table should give you a set of points. Take two coordinated pairs off the table and use the formula y2 - y1 divided by x2 - x1 (rise over run) to get your slope. Then take the slope and one of your points and plug it into y = mx +b with m being the slope, and b as the y-intercept.
Gradient is the steepness of a slope.
Pick any two points in the table. The slope of the line is(change in the y-value from one point to the other)/(change in the x-value from the same point to the other)
