Ok, so there are 2 ways of finding the slope.One way of finding slope is by the algebraic way :
y2-y1
-------- 
x2-x1 
 
2nd way is to find it by doing : RISE
                                                    -----
                                                    RUN

Hope This Helps!

If it's an equation, such as y=mx+b, the slope is whatever the value of m is. For example, if the equation was y=2x-4, than the slope would be 2.
When solving this on a graph, choose any 2 whole number points. (preferably close together, because it makes it easier) Count how many lines up/down (the y axis) and how many lines over left/right (the x axis) and put the up/down on the top of a fraction and the left/right on the bottom. for example if up was 2, and right was 3, than it would be 2/3. Down is negative, and to the left is also negative. If there are 2 negatives (one on the top and one on the bottom) than they cancel each other out and become positive. For example: -2/-3 would be the same as 2/3. Hope this helps :)

X^2 + 5x - 24 = 0 How do I solve by factoring
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

x = -8 or x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor ax² + bx + c, use AC method.

a times c is 1 × -24 = -24.

Factors of ac (-24) that add up to b (5) are 8 and -3.

Divide by a and reduce: 8/1 and -3/1.

Therefore, the factors are x + 8 and x − 3.

x² + 5x − 24 = 0

(x + 8) (x − 3) = 0

x = -8 or 3
