Slope, rise over run, vertical change divided by horizontal change ---
\n" ); document.write( "so pick any two values for x and find the corresponding y values. You will have two points. Now, find change in y divided by change in x.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2y=-6x%2B7\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-%286%2F2%29x%2B7%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-3x%2B7%2F2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Use any values for x.
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=0\", y=-3*0+7/2, \"y=7%2F2\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=1\", \"y=-3%2A1%2B7%2F2\", \"y=7%2F2-3=7%2F2-6%2F2=1%2F2\".
\n" ); document.write( "Two points found are (0, 7/2) and (1, 1/2).\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Slope, \"%281%2F2-7%2F2%29%2F%281-0%29=-6%2F2=highlight%28-3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
