You may want to see my FREE website for additional explanation on this topic. The easiest way to find the website is to use the easy-to-remember and easy-to-spell link www.mathinlivingcolor.com. Near the bottom of this page is a link that takes you to my Homepage.

On my Homepage, look for the link "Basic, Intermediate, and College Algebra: One Step at a Time." Choose "Basic Algebra" and look in Chapter 4 for "Section 4.05 More Slope." I think you will really like the "Math in Living Color" pages that go with these sections.
