Slope Formula

Poll

How did your Delta Math assignment go last night?

Loved it! I'm all done!

I tried but I got stuck so I stopped.

I thought about it but didn't get to it.

What is Delta Math again?

Slope: Review

Rise/Run =
$\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}$
Gives the rate of change
Can be positive (walking uphill from left to right)
Can be negative (walking downhill from left to right)

Finding the slope: Graphically

Pick two points where the line intersects a corner on the grid
Count the units for rise - going up/down (negative if going down)
Count the units for run - ALWAYS TO THE RIGHT
Simplify if necessary
