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

How do you find the slope of a line on a xy coordinate plane?
Form a right angle triangle under the slope and divide the base of the triangle into the height of the triangle.
Who discovered the math concept of slope?
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 or vertical number line on the 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.
An equation whose solutions form a straight line on a coordinate plane.?
The equation is: y = mx+c whereas m is the slope of the line and c is the y interecept
Define slope of a line?
Rise/Run (The rise of the slope divided by the run of the slope.)
How do you find the slope of a line on a xy coordinate plane?
Form a right angle triangle under the slope and divide the base of the triangle into the height of the triangle.
Which expression is used to find the slope of a line?
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.
How do you find the coordinate given the slope of a line?
I forgot. Go to coolmath.com to find the answer.
How do you make an equation with an undefined slope?
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.
Where m represents slope and b represents the y-intercept?
In a slope intercept form of the equation of a straight line in the 2-dimensional coordinate plane.
Who discovered the math concept of slope?
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 or vertical number line on the 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.
An equation whose solutions form a straight line on a coordinate plane.?
The equation is: y = mx+c whereas m is the slope of the line and c is the y interecept
What is the slope of the line passing through points 31 AND -53?
84
What is the slope of the line containing (-2 5)?
Another coordinate is needed to determine the slope of the line.
Define slope of a line?
Rise/Run (The rise of the slope divided by the run of the slope.)
How can you find the length of a line segment on the coordinate plane whose slope is not zero or undefined?
The length of a line between two points, (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on a Cartesian Plane is given by the formula: length = square root [ (x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2 ]
