Mathematics

The slope is the change in Y divided by the change in X.

You would need to know the coordinates of 2 points ( X1,Y1) and (X2,Y2), then subtract : Y2 - Y1 divided by X2- X1.

In order to find slope, you put have four points (x1, y1), (x2, y2). Your formula will be m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1). Your (y2, y1) will be on top while (x2, x1) will be on the bottom. I hope that is the right formula you need. I always use it and it works for me. Have a great day!! :)

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (6, -6) and (4, -4)

djyliett [7]

To find the slope (m), use the slope formula:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ and plug in the two points

(4, -4) = (x₁, y₁)

(6, -6) = (x₂, y₂)

[lines usually go from left to right, so the point furthest to the left is the 1st point]

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\frac{-6-(-4)}{6-4}$ [two negative signs cancel each other out and become positive]

$m=\frac{-6+4}{6-4}$

$m=\frac{-2}{2}$

m = -1
