7. Slide
Finding the Slope of a Line
Slope can tell us how steep a line is!
Each line can be assigned a value (a #) that tells us how steep the line is.
Slope is written as a ratio (rise/run)
Always make sure to simplify your answer!

13. Slide
Finding slope from a Table
Slope = change in y/change in x
Use the table to find the value the y is changing by. That is the numerator!
Use the table to find the value the x is changing by. That is the denominator!
ANOTHER OPTION: Graph the points and count rise/run
