The rise and run is how we solve for slope (m). The formula is m=rise/run. When they are divided with each other, they give us the slope.

Way to remember: You can use the word 'rYse' instead of 'rise' to remember that it means to go up/down on the Y-axis

The "rise" of a line is how much the line goes up (+) or down (-) on the y-axis.

The "run" of a line is how much the line goes left (-) or right (+) on the x-axis.

There are two ways to find the slope of a line: The first one is by simply counting up/down on the y-axis using the rise, and then going left/right on the x-axis using the run. - Rise/run formula

You must understand the basic principles and terminology.

Horizontal (Zero slope) is on the x-axis and vertical (Undefined) is on the y-axis

The slope of a line is the measure of the steepness and the direction of the line. and it can be found with a simple formula

The Slope-Intercept form is the equation of a line with a y-intercept. The formula is 'y=mx+b'.

How do I Find the Slope?

The second way is by finding the slope from two ordered pairs, (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) using the 'y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁' formula.
