Slopes should always be represented What is slope? Rise Run Slope = Remember: Slopes should always be represented as a reduced fraction.

The Slope Triangle Rise Run Change in y Change in x Slope = = To understand the slope formula, we need to look at the slope triangle. From the triangle, we can see we need two points on the line in order to find the slope. The slope is the comparison of the change in y to the change in x. Rise Run Change in y Change in x Slope = =

“Change” is Subtraction The term change in math means to subtract. The slope can also be represented using: The Slope Formula:

Constant Rate of Change Put it all together! Unit Rate Constant Rate of Change Rise Run Change in y Change in x
