Practice Slope in Math
Use these practice problems to test your method after reviewing the concept explanation and worked examples.
Quick Recap
A measure of how steep a line is; the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change.
How much the line goes up for every step to the right. Steeper = bigger slope.
Example 1
easyFind the slope of the line passing through points (2, 3) and (6, 11).
Example 2
easyFind the slope of the line through (1, 4) and (5, 12).
Example 3
mediumA line passes through (3, 7) and (3, -2). What is its slope?
Example 4
mediumFind the slope of the line passing through (2, 5) and (6, 13).
Example 5
hardA line has slope -\frac{3}{4} and passes through (0, 5). Find the y-value when x = 8.
