Finding Slope

Slope describes the ________ of a line.

• steepness

• sleepiness

• sloppiness

The formula to use when finding slope from a graph is...

• m = run / rise

• m = rise / run

• m = rise + run

"rise" is ...

• how much you go up/down

• how much you go to the side

• how many similar triangles there are

"run" is ...

• how many points you passed

• how much you go up/down

• how much you go to the side

When finding the slope from a table, we use...

• m = change in y / change in x

• m = rise / run

• m = change in x / change in y

When finding the slope between two points what are your two options...

• Plotting the points on a graph (then rise/run)

• Finding the distance between the x values

• Making a "mini table" (then finding change in y/change in x)

• Type the points into DESMOS
