line increasing = positive slope line decreasing = negative slope pick two points , use slope formula

@Nnesha well whats the formula??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pick 2 sets of points on your line (1,0) and (0,2) now sub them into the slope formula slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) (1,0)...x1 = 1 and y1 = 0 (0,2)...x2 = 0 and y2 = 2 now sub and find your slope

Nnesha (nnesha):

or just make a triangle |dw:1430883156338:dw|

Nnesha (nnesha):

\[\huge\rm \frac{ y_2 - y_1}{ x_2 - x_1 }\] formula
