How do I find slope in an equation? For example, y= 1/4x+3

Slope = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

y = mx + b        Slope Intercept Form

Step 2:

m = Slope

Step 3:

y = 1/4x + 3           Equation

Slope = 1/4

Hope This Helps :)

It depends if it is in a word problem or on a graph

Step-by-step explanation:

In a word problem you are looking for 2 numbers one that is a rate and one that is a beginning number. The rate is going to be the slope and the beginning number is going to be the y-intercept.

The equation is y=mx+b

The m is the slope and the b is the y-intercept

On a graph wherever the line crosses through the y-axis that is the y-intercept  or the b in the equation. To find the slope however is a little more difficult you have to rise over run it. This means that you find a point that is perfect or a (pretty point). Then you go up from the y-intercept to the x line that it is resting on and then you go over to that point.

In the equation provided the y-intercept is 3 or (0,3) and the slope is 1/4 so you go up 1 and over 4 and you would get your next point (4,4). Hope this helps.
