In math and statistics, you may occasionally need to calculate the slope of a line generated by coordinates in the (x,y) format. The slope is a value that indicates the rate at which the y value of a ...

Any straight line graph has a constant gradient, which is calculated by the change in 𝑦 divided by the change in 𝑥, along any section of the graph. The gradient is measuring the steepness of the ...

Microsoft's Excel software for Mac can execute a number of statistical functions, including finding the y-intercept of the line formed by a set of data points. Excel's intercept function takes the ...

In order to work with gradients and straight lines successfully, a good understanding of coordinates and linear graphs is needed. The gradient of a line is calculated by dividing the difference in the ...

Finding the slope of a linear function is straightforward. Furthermore the slope is the same at each point on the function. However this is not the case with non-linear functions. A non-linear ...
