4.7 Finding Slope

Recall that the slope of a line is the rate of change of the linear function.

Recall that the slope of a line is the rate of change of the linear function. On the graph, it is the steepness of the line

Find the slope of the line that connects ( 0 , 0 ) and ( 3 , 2 )

slope of a line — the rate of change of the linear function.

Be able to write the slope of a line; write the equation of a line in different forms.
