Slope of a Line
slope (m)- the ratio of the change in y to the change in x. Slope is represented by the variable “m” Rise- the amount that you go up or down Run- the amount that you go left or right Find the Slope Using a Graph Watch the video below to see how to find the slope, and answer the accompanying questions. Label the RISE, RUN, and SLOPE for each line in the picture below Remember to reduce fractions. Leave reduced fractions in improper form. 4 2 2 1 4 4 1 2 4 Find the slope of the line above Find the slope of the line above Rate your understanding of how to find the slope of a line using a graph. 1- I don't think I understand at all. I need more help. 2- I kind of understand but I might need help sometimes. 3- I totally get this! I could explain it to someone else.
