Two sets of points are needed to determine the slope of a line
Chat with our AI personalities
You can't determine a slope from a single point. You need two points.And of course, you need two coordinates for each point.
If you mean points of (1,4) (2, 6) and (3, 8) then the slope is 2 and the equation is y = 2x+2
Points: (7, 3) (14, 6) (21, 9) Slope: 3/7 Equation: 7y=3x
If you mean point of (1, 4) and slope of -10 then y = -10x+14
A slope has its equation as y2 - y1/x2 - x1. So 4 - -10/5 - 1 = 14/4 = 7/2.
If the equation is x + 7y = 14 then the slope is -1/7 If the equation is x + y7 = 14, then the slope is 7(14 - x)-8
