Finding Slope (m)

Hello there! Today I will be going more in detail about slope because I only briefly talked about it in my last video. Slope is the relationship between two different points. If you haven't seen my last video, check it out! https://youtu.be/xjIZE2MunNU I talk about graphing basic linear equations using the slope intercept method.Show more

You can see slope written as many different forms. M is the variable that represents slope. You may also see the notation of "triangle y" over "triangle x". The triangle is actually a delta which represents the change in y over the change in x. The slope is the ratio between the change in y in relation to the change in x. Breaking it down even more, you see (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). To find the slope, you can just take the two points on the coordinate plane and plop them into the equation. You can also learn how to pick points that will satisfy slopes that are given in the problem.

Thanks for checking out this video! I hope you enjoy it.
