anonymous · Answer

$$\text{slope} = \frac{ \text{rise} }{ \text{run} } \frac{ \updownarrow }{ \leftrightarrow }$$ left = negative, down = negative, up = positive, right = positive 
we use the equation y = mx+b which is the slope of the line and m is the slope in the line.

So for example, say we have the graph |dw:1420340041415:dw| the slope for this line is $$\frac{ 2 }{ 1 } \frac{ \updownarrow }{ \leftrightarrow }$$

anonymous · Answer

So read your graph from where the line crosses the y - axis, which is b in the equation y = mx+b

anonymous · Answer

Idk cause i'm not really good with graphs :(

anonymous · Answer

Well use the information I gave you, think about it for a bit, take your time and let me know what you get.

anonymous · Answer

|dw:1420340642340:dw| this is your graph using y = mx+b we know that the y - intercept (where the line crosses the y - axis) is 2. So we have, $$y = ?x+2$$ Now you can use any dotted point to figure out the slope.
