Suppose we have the Xs values located in the excel sheet range from A1 to A10 and Ys values located in the given excel sheet from range B1 to B10 then we can calculate the SLOPE here by using the below VBA functions. Dim x y as Range declare the range x and y. They are as follows.
Slope y₂ - y₁ x₂ - x₁ Notice that the slope of a line is easily calculated by hand using small whole number coordinates.
If the slope is a negative value the line is descending. How to Calculate Slope. The formula to calculate slope is given as mfrac y_ 2-y_ 1 x_ 2-x_ 1 Where m is the slope of the line. How to enter numbers.
