X 1 y 1 -3 -2 and x 2 y 2 2 2 m y 2 y 1 x 2 x 1 2 2 2 3 2 2 2 3 4 5. Find the slope from a graph Locate two points on the line whose coordinates are integers. If you go up the y-value is positive.
In technical terms the slope of the line is the change in y over the change in x.
When graphing a linear equation slope refers to the value m in the equation y mx b. Select the Label drop-down and select Use Equation. We just want to compare how it has changed between first month and second month. The value of m is the slope of the graph.
