Slope tells us how steep a line is. It's like measuring how quickly a hill goes up or down. We find the slope by seeing how much we go up or down (vertical change) for each step to the right (horizontal …

Worked examples of finding the slope of a line given its equation, using many forms of equations.

The slope, or steepness, of a line is found by dividing the vertical change (rise) by the horizontal change (run). The formula is slope = (y₂ - y₁)/ (x₂ - x₁), where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the coordinates of two …

Use the power of algebra to understand and interpret points and lines (something we typically do in geometry). Topics you'll explore include the slope and the equation of a line.

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness. Mathematically, slope is calculated as "rise over run" (change in y divided by change in x).

Learn how to calculate the slope of the line in a graph by finding the change in y and the change in x. Created by Sal Khan and Monterey Institute for Technology and Education.

Walk through a graphical explanation of how to find the slope from two points and what it means.

Learn how to write the slope formula from scratch and how to apply it to find the slope of a line from two points.

Learn how to calculate slope, understand steepness and direction of a line, and find where lines cross the y-axis. We’ll also apply these concepts in real-world situations.

To fully apply point-slope, or to apply point-slope easily, we just have to figure out the slope. And what we could do is, we could just evaluate well what's the slope between the two points that we know?
