Basic Algebra question
#7
You have a line on a graph going from left to right. If the line is lower on the left than it is on the right, it has a positive slope. If the line is lower on the right than it is on the left, it has a negative slope. (Keep that in mind when you're doing the following math to determine the value of the slope.)

The first point on the line going Left to Right is your Point 1.
The second point on the line that is to the right of Point 1 is your Point 2

To calculate the slope of the graph you have the formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).
y2 (the y value of the right point) - y1 (the y value of the left point) <~This is also called the Rise
divided by
x2 (the x value of the right point) - x1 (the x value of the left point) <~ this is also called the Run
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wile E. Coyote, genius. I am not selling anything nor am I working my way through college, so let's get down to basics: you are a rabbit and I am going to eat you for supper. Now don't try to get away, I am more muscular, more cunning, faster and larger than you are, and I am a genius, while you could hardly pass the entrance examinations to kindergarten, so I'll give you the customary two minutes to say your prayers.

Bachelor of Science in PsychoRabbitology degree
Master of Education with a specialty in Rabbit-specific destructive munitions (or eLearning & Technology, I forget which)
Doctor of Philosophy in Wile E. Leadership with an area of specialty in Acme Mind Expansion - 2017 Hopefully
