The equation point slope calculator will find an equation in either slope intercept form or point slope form when given a point and a slope. If you do remember that the formula for slope is change in y over change in x. A line is increasing and goes upwards from left to right when m 0.
The slope of a line is a non-angular representation of the angle between the line and a horizontal line such as the x-axis.
Sometimes you would see it written as y2 minus y1 over x2 minus x1 where you could kind of view x1 y1 as the starting point and x2 y2 as the ending point. Slope would be 6- -4 over -1-5 which would also be 10 over -6 which would be -53. Pick two points on the line and label their coordinates. To find the slope you divide the difference of the y-coordinates of 2 points on a line by the difference of the x-coordinates of those same 2 points.
