Like many other languages and sciences, Algebra can be useful in the explanation of real-world experiences. Linear algebra, in particular, holds a high level of relevancy in the solution of real world problems like physics equations. Since t Continue Reading...
By observing x on the graph, then we make the connection that the slope of x on the graph represents rate of change of the linear function.
Once we have done this, it is then possible to move to the development of a quadratic equation and see what Continue Reading...

Find the slope of the line that goes through the following points: (-4, 6), (-8, 6)
Slope: m = (y2 -- y1) / (x2 -- x1) = (6 -- 6) / (-8 -- (-4)) = 0 / (-4) = 0
m = 0.
