Slope is the change of your y variable divided by your change in the x variable.
So let's say you start at (3,0) and walk to (6,12)
Then your slope (generally called "m") is
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (12 - 0)/(6 - 3) = 12/3 = 4
So your slope is 4. That means for every one you move right, you move four up.
What else can I help you with?
When is slope-intercept form useful?
its useful in graphing! equations, inequalities, ect pretty much graphing!
In graphing motion steepness of the slope depends on?
how quickly or slowly the object is moving
Graphing linear equation using the slope and y-intercept of the line?
The y-intercept, together with the slope of the line, can also be used in graphing linear equations. The slope and y-intercept of a line can be obtained easily by inspection if the equeation of the line is of the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
What does slope tell you about inches and centimeters?
Nothing. Slope is a measure used in graphing and algebra. Feet and inches are units of linear measurement.
What is slope and how does it relate to rate?
Rate can be the slope of a line when some variables are graphed. Ex: When graphing distance vs time for a moving object the slope of the line is the rate.
How do you find the slope of a line without graphing?
guess it

What is an advantage of graphing a line using slope intercept form instead of graphing using a table?
None. Different people prefer different ways of working.
What is the basic equation for graphing linear equations?
y=mx+b m is slope. slope is rise over run b is y-int
When you graph a line using only the slope and a point what step do you start with?
When you graph a line using only the slope and a point, you start by graphing the point.
What is first step in graphing using slope intercept form of an equation?
Plot the y-axis, which is the b in the y=mx+b in the slope intercept equation. Then, you put your slope and plot the line.
In graphing motion the steepness of the slope depends on What?
In graphing motion, the steepness of the slope depends on the speed of the object being represented. A steeper slope indicates a higher speed, meaning the object is covering more distance over a given time interval. Conversely, a gentler slope indicates a slower speed. The slope's direction also indicates the direction of motion, with upward slopes representing forward movement and downward slopes indicating reverse movement.
