Slope of a Line (6.1)

Slope helps us calculate the steepness of something. What is slope? Slope helps us calculate the steepness of something.

The Formula for Slope: Slope = rise run Rise is the vertical distance from the bottom edge to the top. Run is the horizontal distance.

Determining Slope Using a Graph:

Drawing a Line Segment Given a Slope: B)

Determining Slope Given Two Points Step 1) Plot the points on a graph. Step 2) Calculate the rise and run of the line between the two points.

Determining Slope Given Two Points Or….. Remember the formula from Unit 5 for the Rate of Change? (y2 –y1) (x2 – x1) Then just plug in our values from our points: 2 – (-5) 1 – (-3) 4 7
