Find slope from a graph of a line

Teaching Transcript

🎙️

Let's find the slope of the line shown here

Slope is simply how far up, divided by how far to the right

Our line goes up from 1 to 5. That's a change of 4. It goes right from 2 to 4. That's a change of 2

Since it goes up 4, and right 2, that's a slope of 4 over 2, or 2.

This math skill teaches how to find the slope of a line from its graph. It highlights that slope can be determined by calculating the vertical change (rise) divided by the horizontal change (run) between two points on the line.
