Question

how do i find the slope of a graph

Answer 1

use the formula y=mx+b and plug in

Answer 2

what?

Answer 3

if youre trying to finde the slope you obviously have an equation, you would plug in the numbers of the eqution into y=mx+b

Answer 4

for example you have x/8+25 =0

Answer 5

"obviously have an equation"

you know, he could be given graph

Answer 6

add 25 to 8=33
1/33x=0
multplie bothe sides by 33
x=0.(33)
x=0

Answer 7

use y=mx+b and you see that this equatiion is undefined

Answer 8

there is the graph

Answer 9

@geerky42 that's true my bad

Answer 10

did you recieve the graph?

Answer 11

i cannot view it sorry

Answer 12

your computer wont let you?

Answer 13

Intercept=8 since that is where the line touches the y axis.
Slope=-2/3 since you go down 2 times then forward 3 to get to the next point.

So your equation is \[y=\frac{ -2 }{3 }x+8\]

Answer 14

omg thank you damian

Answer 15

Did that make sense? I can post a picture of how to find the slope for the graph you posted.

Answer 16

o that would be nice

Answer 17

Give me a few moments.

Answer 18

ok

Answer 19

Can you see this?

Answer 20

Rise is also the same thing going down only that it's negative.

Answer 21

o ok thanks
