1. Slope (Finding it from two points and from a table.)

2. Key Idea : Slope of a line is a ratio of change in y (the rise) to the change in x (the run) between any two points. Slope can increase, decrease, or stay the same. Remember to read the graph from left to right when identifying what type of slope it is.

3. When given two points and asked to find the slope of the line that connects those points we use the formula: **Remember to keep it in _________ form and reduce!

4. Example 1: Find the slope of the line between the following two points.

5. Example 2: Find the slope of the line between the following two points.

6. Example 3: Find the slope of the line using the table below. Use the table to identify two coordinates. Use the slope formula to solve!!

7. Example 4: Find the slope of the line using the table below.
