Gradient and Intercepts

In mathematics, the term gradient or slope is often used to describe how steeply a straight line lies. Given two points CO-ORDINATE GEOMETERY 2 and CO-ORDINATE GEOMETERY 2 to form a line CO-ORDINATE GEOMETERY 2,  we define the gradient of the line CO-ORDINATE GEOMETERY 2 as the ratio CO-ORDINATE GEOMETERY 2 going from one point to another along line CO-ORDINATE GEOMETERY 2.

CO-ORDINATE GEOMETERY 2

Let CO-ORDINATE GEOMETERY 2 be the gradient of line CO-ORDINATE GEOMETERY 2,  then
