Example Questions
Example Question #431 : Functions And Lines
What is the slope of the line that passes through these two points?
The slope is defined as the slant measurement of a line, quantitatively the amount of units that one must "rise", over the amout of units one must "run," or move horizontally across the graph. 
We must find the slope of the line that would pass through both of these points.
To do so, we use the formula:
For these two points, our formula would look like this:
Thus 
Example Question #192 : Equations Of Lines
Find the slope of 
Rewrite the equation in slope intercept form.
Where 
The slope is
Example Question #193 : Equations Of Lines
Given the points 
Find the slope of the line.
Use the given points and plug them into slope formula:
Remember points are written in the following format:
Substitute.
Simplify:
Example Question #194 : Equations Of Lines
What is the slope of the line between points 
The question asks for the slope of the line between two points.
*Always remember what the question is asking.
Using coordinates
and plugging them into the slope formula we get the following.
Example Question #32 : How To Find Slope Of A Line
What is the slope of the equation 
The question is asking for the slope of the equation.

In order to find 
Example Question #196 : Equations Of Lines
Find the slope of the line crossing through the points 
To find the slope of a line, all we need is the coordinates of two points that lie on the line. We are provided with two points in this problem.
The formula used is:
If we plug in the points provided:
Thus, our slope means that between these two points, we must rise 3 units and run 8 positive units.
Example Question #31 : How To Find Slope Of A Line
