You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The formula for finding a slope (m) is:
Slope formula:
highlight%28m=%28y2-y1%29%2F%28x2-x1%29%29 when given two points: (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
:
If you're ginven an equation and asked for a slope, or given an angle of elevation and asked for a slope we get it differently.
Happy Calculating!!!
