KEY:
For a table:
Δ𝑦
𝑠𝑙𝑜𝑝𝑒 =
Δ𝑥
For an equation:
For a graph:
Remember we write in the form
𝑠𝑙𝑜𝑝𝑒 =
y = mx + b
The number in place of m is our
slope
𝑟𝑖𝑠𝑒
𝑟𝑢𝑛
Directions: Find the slope of each function. Then, circle the name of the person who has the
SMALLEST slope. Be sure to show ALL of your work for full credit!
