How to Find the slope of a line given 2 points with fractions

Mar 14, 2010 01:25 PM

In this video tutorial the instructor shows how to find the slope of a line given two points with fractional values. To do this first name your two points as point 1 with coordinates as x1, y1 and point 2 with coordinates x2, y2. Then substitute the values in the equation of the slope which is slope m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). Now all you have to do is simply the fraction after substituting the point values. Be careful about the signs while substituting in the formula. Now finally after solving it gives the value of slope in fractional form. This video shows how to calculate the slope of a line when two points containing fractional values that fall on the line are given.
