Multiple Choice

What is slope?

• The steepness of a line.

• The curvature of a line.

• A point on a line.

• A chicken.

Slope from a Graph

​To find the slope you need two points on the line.​​

Then, use Rise OVER Run starting from the left point.

​Example 1

​Find the slope of the graph.

​Example 2

​Find the slope of the graph.

Slope from Two Points

​To find the slope from two points, you can use the formula: y - y OR use Rise over Run.

x - x​

​Remember, points are written as (x, y).
