What is the slope between the given points of -4 -1 and 4 5?
Calculate the difference of the y-coordinates, and divide it by the difference of the x-coordinates. That is the slope.
What do you need to use the point slope formula?
The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.
What is the slope of the line formed by these two points 2 3 and 4 2?
To find the slope we need to divide the difference in rise between these two points by the difference in run between them. The difference in rise equals: 3-2 = 1. The difference in run between these points equals: 2-4 = -2.Now we just divide 1/-2 and we get the slope of the line formed by these two points: -0.5
What is the formula to calculate the slope of the line?
To find the slope of any line y = f(x) differentiate with respect to x: slope = dy/dx; the slope at any point can then be found by substituting the value of the x coordinate of that point. If you mean how to find the slope of a straight line: slope = change_in_y/change_in_x Taking any two points on the line (x0, y0) and (x1, y1) this becomes: slope = (y_of_first_point - y_of_second_point)/(x_of_first_point - x_of_second_point) → slope = (y1 - y0)/(x1 - x0) As it doesn't matter which is chosen as the first point, the slope can also be written as: slope = (y0 - y1)/(x0 - x1)
What is the point-slope form of a line with a slope -5 that contains the point (2-1)?
Point: (2, -1) Slope: -5 Equation: y = -5x+9
