Learn how to calculate the slope of the line in a graph by finding the change in y and the change in x. Created by Sal Khan and Monterey Institute for Technology and Education.

Use the power of algebra to understand and interpret points and lines (something we typically do in geometry). Topics you'll explore include the slope and the equation of a line.

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness. Mathematically, slope is calculated as "rise over run" (change in y divided by change in x).

Walk through a graphical explanation of how to find the slope from two points and what it means.

Let's explore different ways to find and visualize slopes and intercepts, and how these concepts can help us solve real-world problems. **Unit guides are here!**

The slope of a line on a graph is a pivotal measurement that captures the essence of its steepness. It reveals not just the incline or decline of the line, but also provides a meaningful connection between …

Learn how to graph lines whose equations are given in the slope-intercept form y=mx+b. If you haven't read it yet, you might want to start with our introduction to slope-intercept form.

Learn how to write the slope formula from scratch and how to apply it to find the slope of a line from two points.

Learn about the slope-intercept form of two-variable linear equations, and how to interpret it to find the slope and y-intercept of their line.
