Finding Slope between Two Points
In this lesson, you will learn how to find the slope between two points using the rise over run formula. The instructor explains that slope can be described as the change in y over the change in x, or delta y over delta x. By labeling the two points as x1, y1 and x2, y2, the instructor demonstrates how to plug in values to find the slope using this formula. The lesson also emphasizes the importance of expressing the slope as a fractional form.
How to find the slope between two points
I show how to solve math problems online during live instruction in class. This is my way of providing free tutoring for the students in my class and for students anywhere in the world. Every video is a short clip that shows exactly how to solve math problems step by step. The problems are done in real time and in front of a regular classroom. These videos are intended to help you learn how to solve math problems, review how to solve a math problems, study for a test, or finish your homework. I post all of my videos on YouTube, but if you are looking for other ways to interact with me and my videos you can follow me on the following pages through My Blog, Twitter, or Facebook.
