What is the slope of the line passing through 1 5 and 0 2?
Calculate the slope as (difference of y-coordinates) / (difference of x-coordinates).
What is the slope between the given points of -4 -1 and 4 5?
Calculate the difference of the y-coordinates, and divide it by the difference of the x-coordinates. That is the slope.
What is the slope of the line formed by these two points 2 3 and 4 2?
To find the slope we need to divide the difference in rise between these two points by the difference in run between them. The difference in rise equals: 3-2 = 1. The difference in run between these points equals: 2-4 = -2.Now we just divide 1/-2 and we get the slope of the line formed by these two points: -0.5
What is the difference between a concave slope and convex slope?
Standing on the top of a concave slope means you can not see down to the bottom due to the bulge in the middle. A concave slope starts gently and gets steeper, once over the bulge, near the bottom. Standing on a concave slope means that you can see the bottom of the slope. A concave slope starts off steeply and becomes less steep near the bottom.
What is the formula to calculate the slope of the line?
To find the slope of any line y = f(x) differentiate with respect to x: slope = dy/dx; the slope at any point can then be found by substituting the value of the x coordinate of that point. If you mean how to find the slope of a straight line: slope = change_in_y/change_in_x Taking any two points on the line (x0, y0) and (x1, y1) this becomes: slope = (y_of_first_point - y_of_second_point)/(x_of_first_point - x_of_second_point) → slope = (y1 - y0)/(x1 - x0) As it doesn't matter which is chosen as the first point, the slope can also be written as: slope = (y0 - y1)/(x0 - x1)
