Do you know the formula to calculate the slope? Slope two point form?

OpenStudy (tteesstt8080):

Well, slope formula given two points.

OpenStudy (dottiecat):

Just a sec, I wrote it in my book

OpenStudy (mecharv):

Take any two points on the graph. in this case (0,4) and say (6,2). Identify x1,y1,x2,y and substitute in the formula.

OpenStudy (mecharv):

x1,y1,x2,y2

OpenStudy (tteesstt8080):

Mecharv can take over ^.^

OpenStudy (dottiecat):

0 6 / 4-2?

OpenStudy (mecharv):

0-6 right?

OpenStudy (dottiecat):

oh yes, sorry lol

OpenStudy (mecharv):

What do you get when you solve it

OpenStudy (dottiecat):

so then it's 6 / 2. 6 divided 2 is 3. so the m = 3?

OpenStudy (mecharv):

Perfect. :)

OpenStudy (dottiecat):

Yay thanks! I just needed a little refresher :3
