sleepyjess · Answer

Do you know the formula for slope?

anonymous · Answer

y=mx+b? @sleepyjess

sleepyjess · Answer

No that is the standard form of a function.
The formula to find slope/rate of change is $\large\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_x-x_1}$

sleepyjess · Answer

And I am assuming by 1 they mean the x values.

anonymous · Answer

Oh yeahhhh , okay . I always mix up the formulas.

sleepyjess · Answer

$\normalsize x_1,x_1 = 1,2$  $\normalsize x_2,y_2 = 3,8$

sleepyjess · Answer

Can you get it from there?

anonymous · Answer

you have three x's and one y in your second to last comment... that confused me.. @sleepyjess

sleepyjess · Answer

Whoops the first one should be $\normalsize x_1,y_1 = 1,2$
