-- Measure how far the slope rises in 100-ft of horizontal distance.-- That number is the percent of slope, or the "grade".-- If you want the angle of the slope, divide the number by 100, and look upthe "arctangent" of the answer in a table or on a calculator.
In maths a table is like a graph
a horizontal line
The standard form of the slope-intercept equation is: y = mx + b where "m" is the slope, and "b" is the y-intercept.
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)
