Slope (Gradient) of a line

The slope (also called: gradient) of a line is the ratio of the change in y compared to the change in x.

Look at the picture and find two points P(x 1,x2) and Q(y1,y2) on the line, then determine the slope (gradient) using the following equation:

The slope (gradient) is m =
