Rise = 8 - (-3) = 11 Run = -2 - 4 = -6 So ratio = -11/6
The slope is the ratio of rise over the run. The rise is the change in the vertical distance.The run is the change in the horizontal distance.So the slope is the ratio of two changes, horizontal divided by vertical.
The vertical change between two points separated by a horizontal difference of Dx is Dx*slope = Dx*Rise/Run
If you're talking about slope, it is rise over run. But why is it not the other way run over rise?
Determine which line is steeper by finding out which has a greater rise over run. I trust you know what rise over run is. You can determine which has a greater rise over run by dividing the rise by the run, and then whichever line has the largest decimal is the steepest.
give the ratio of rise to run for the line that contains points (-2,5) and (-2,-2)
The rise is 2 and the run is 5. The ratio is called the slope, which in this case is 2/5 or 0.4.
The ratio of rise over run is known as slope. In a linear equation, it can be found by identifying m in the equation Y=mx+b

The ratio of rise to run.
Is the modulus, gradient or slope of the line.
The vertical change between two points separated by a horizontal difference of Dx is Dx*slope = Dx*Rise/Run
it is called the slope
gradient, ratio of rise to run, "m", grade, rate of change, incline
It is called the slope of a line.
