Question

I'm really clueless when it comes to finding the slone of a line. Help?

Answer 1

*slope. sorry.

Answer 2

post ur q

Answer 3

lets start then..
do you know the equation of a line is y=mx+c
where m is the slope?

Answer 4

A line may be written in the form:
\[y = mx + b\]

where m is the slope of the line, and b is the y-intercept.

Answer 5

there are different tupe of ways which you can use to find a slope and the method varies in every case.. Are your basics right?

Answer 6

Yes. I use the m= y1-y2 over x1-x2 solution for it

Answer 7

whn ur given the eq Ax+By+c=0 then slope=-A/B

Answer 8

if ur given two points then slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Answer 9

I have troubles when the given are fractions

Answer 10

When given two points like:
\[(x_1,y_1)\]\[(x_2,y_2)\]

\[m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\]

Answer 11

when the givens are fractions, you can try converting them to decimals so you can calculate the slope more easily.

Answer 12

Alright. I'll try my hand at that. Thanks for the help! :)

Answer 13

Um, I need help. Sorry, I was absent for a while and our exams are tomorrow so I have to cram.
The equation was 2x+y=6 Since the form should be y=mx+b, I transposed it to y=2x+6. Doing it right, so far?

Answer 14

yes correct

Answer 15

now you have the equation in \[y=mx+b\]
