1 I can find the slope of a line from a table or graph.

2 Shows the relationship between two changing quantities. The larger the absolute value of the rate of change, the steeper the line. Rate of Change

3 Using a Table

4 When data are linear, the rate of change is constant. Rate of change is the ratio of vertical change (rise) to horizontal change (run) between two points on a line. Rate of change is also called slope Slope

5 Using a Graph

6 Pick two points on a line, (x 1, y 1 ) and (x 2, y 2 ) Then use the slope formula: Slope Formula

7 Using Points

8 Slopes
