Rise over run
for instance in y=3x+6 the 3 is the same as 3/1 so you go 3 up and 1 over. the 6 is the intercept
Form a right angle triangle under the slope and divide the base of the triangle into the height of the triangle.
It was the French mathematician Rene Descartes who introduced coordinate geometry that includes the slope of a straight line on the Cartesian plane.
The horizontal number line on a coordinate plane is called the x-axis, and the vertical number line on a coordinate plane is called the y-axis.
Rise/Run (The rise of the slope divided by the run of the slope.)
The equation is: y = mx+c whereas m is the slope of the line and c is the y interecept
Form a right angle triangle under the slope and divide the base of the triangle into the height of the triangle.
The steepness of a line can be measured as the slope of a line. The letter 'm' is used to denote the slope and it can be expressed as m= (y coordinate of A- y coordinate of B)/ (x coordinate of A- x coordinate of B). A and B are two points on the line.
I forgot. Go to coolmath.com to find the answer.
An equation with an undefined slope is typically in the form x = a, where 'a' is a constant number. This indicates a vertical line on the coordinate plane, where every point on the line has the same x-coordinate and no defined slope because the line is perfectly vertical.
It was the French mathematician Rene Descartes who introduced coordinate geometry that includes the slope of a straight line on the Cartesian plane.
In a slope intercept form of the equation of a straight line in the 2-dimensional coordinate plane.
The horizontal number line on a coordinate plane is called the x-axis, and the vertical number line on a coordinate plane is called the y-axis.
Another coordinate is needed to determine the slope of the line.

In coordinate geometry, each point in the plane is identified by an ordered pair, (x,y) which are known as the coordinates of the point. The equation of any straight line in the coordinate plane can be written in the form y = mx + c so that the coordinates of each point on the line satisfies this equation (and the coordinates of a point outside the line doed not satisfies it). The equation in this form is known as the slope-intercept form. m is the slope and c is the intercept.
