This math topic focuses on calculating the run of a line, or the change in x-coordinates, between two points on a coordinate plane. Each problem presents a pair of points, and the task is to determine how much the x-value changes from one point to the other. The content is well suited for practicing how to work with x-coordinates and understanding horizontal distances in line equations and graphing contexts. This skill is foundational for further studies in geometry and algebra, particularly in graphing linear equations.
