Frequently Asked Questions
How is slope calculated from two points?
Slope m = (yโ โ yโ) รท (xโ โ xโ) โ the rise divided by the run. A positive slope rises left to right, a negative slope falls, and a zero slope is horizontal.
What is the line equation?
Once you have the slope m and a point, the line is y = mx + b, where b is the y-intercept found from b = yโ โ mยทxโ. A vertical line (xโ = xโ) has an undefined slope.
