Describe the process of finding slope from a table of values?
to find the slope of the line passing through the points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) you must do: (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) for the points (3,5) and (4,6): (6-5) / (4-3). you only need two points.
How do you find volume when only the mass is given?
It's not possible.
What does the word seqt refer to?
Seqt is what the ancient Egyptians used in place of the modern "slope". Although we find the ratio of rise to run (how much a slope rises over a unit length), the Egyptians did the opposite: they calculated run over rise: how much distance the slope needs to rise a unit height. This would mean that the seqt is simply the reciprocal of the slope, except that things were a bit more complicated: the Egyptians measured height in "cubits" and length in "palms". There are 7 palms in a cubit, which makes the seqt 7 times what it would be otherwise. This means that a simple formula for relating seqt and slope is Seqt=7/Slope. To find a seqt, we don't actually need to use the Egyptian units (cubits and palms): only their ratio, 7 was important. The seqt can also be used to measure an angle: it is 7 times the cotangent. For angles between 0 and 180 degrees, this is enough information to find the angle, given the seqt.
How do you find circumference with given diameter?
If you only have a given diameter you have to multiply the diameter by Pi (3.142) or 3.14 and then you get the circumference!
How do you evaluate an expression when given values for the variables?
You replace each variable by its value. Then you do the indicated calculations.
What is the coefficient for x in a slope intercept equation?
The slope intercept form is found by using this formula: y=mx+b. so the coefficient of x is the slope or 'm'. You can find the slope using this formula: y2-y1/x2-x1 wherein the first y is the y value of your coordinate (x,y) and the y2 is the second y value of the coordinate (x,y) The same applies to the x values. The first x value is the first part of your ordered pair ((x),y)..the x part. The second x value is the other 'part' of the ordered pair given to you...or ((x),y). If you're only given one x,y value, then you will need another formula y-y1=m(x-x1) and to find the slope. You only need fill in one of the values, the x1 and y1 values with your given point. You will almost always be given a slope and a point, or a graph which you can figure out the slope for, or two points.
Can one line have 2 slopes?
If the line is a straight line, meaning 180degrees, it can only have one slope. If it is a function (f(x)= or y=) then the line may have more than one, one, or an undefined slope. Find the first differential of the function and plug in your given x value to find the slope at any given point.
Describe a situation in which point-slope form would be more useful than slope-intercept form?
You use point-slope form to find the equation of a line if you only have a point and a slope or if you are just given two point. Usually you will convert point-slope form to slope-intercept form to make it easier to use.
How do you find the excluded values for the equation a 3 - 2a?
It is not possible to answer the question since no equation is given in the question: only an expression.
Why is point slope form important?
Point Slope form is important because it can give us another set of coordinate pairs when we are only given one. When you have the two coordinate pairs, we are able to find the slope of the line using Y2-Y1 ------- X2-X1 Note: The slope is used to find how much y changes(increase/decreases) when x increases by one.
How do you find the slope intercept and standard forms of a line when the slope is undefined and you are given the coordinates 2 and 4?
When the slope is undefined, you know the line has to be vertical. Vertical lines only have an x in their equations. When you have the coordinates (2,4) with a vertical line, the equation for the slope intercept AND standard form would be the same thing: x=2
How do you find the slope of the tangent line to each curve at the given point?
By differentiating the answer and plugging in the x value along the curve, you are finding the exact slope of the curve at that point. In effect, this would be the slope of the tangent line, as a tangent line only intersects another at one point. To find the equation of a tangent line to a curve, use the point slope form (y-y1)=m(x-x1), m being the slope. Use the differential to find the slope and use the point on the curve to plug in for (x1, y1).
How do you find the x-intercept of a line?
On one of my projects for my algebra class...my professor is asking us to find the slope of a line which is fairly easy.....but i only have one point and it's impossible to find a slope with only one point....what am i doing wrong?

How do you find the y intercept of a line with only slope?
tough to answer, but if slope is only provided then it should intercept at (0,0). Such as, y=3x, that intercepts at 0.
What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points 17 and 101?
To find the slope of a line passing through two points, use the formula (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). In this case, the two points are (17, 101). Since there is only one given point, it is not possible to find the slope of the line passing through these points.

How do you graph the slope of a given function?
You find the slope by using 2 points and doing y2-y1/x2-x1 Then you put it into the equation and plug in any point as x or y and find b. Then, you plug in x and y values and graph them. What is written above is correct, but does not answer the question. The method provided above is only valid för functions of the form: f(x) = kx + m However when dealing with polynomials such as x^3, where the slope is under constant change, the slope is calculated using a different method. lim h-->0 (f(x+h) - f(x))/h Simplification is needed for, for example the calculation of the slope of x^3 at any given point for x. Try it out yourself. The answer is 3x^2. Generally: if f(x)=x^n then f´(x)=nx^(n-1)
