Slope 2

 $\frac{change\ in\ y}{change\ in\ x}=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}$  

• true

• false

Find the slope of the line in the graph

Slope tells us

• the length of a line

• how steep a line is

• distance between two points

Find the slope of the line from the two indicated points in the graph

What is the  $\Delta y\ and\ \Delta x$  of the line in the graph

•  $\Delta y\ =6$   $\Delta x=5$  

•  $\Delta y=2\ \Delta x=6$  

•  $\Delta y=4\ \Delta x=5$  

•  $\Delta y\ =5\ \Delta x=2$  

identify the change in x and change in y of the line
