    Sir, I'm 48 y/o going back to school for my Masters degree. I had to take Statistics my very first semester back in school after 23 years, longer than that including HS. I struggled so much with this in class that I got a C+. "Rise over run" was said but never explained. This was in 2018. I wish I had found this video then. I actually didn't know that TH-cam is how these young folks learned now! I'm taking Microeconomics this summer and slopes are back! This video was super helpful, thank you! God bless you!

    I am a biochemistry major who grew up in a cult where we didn't learn math (except for basic division and multiplication). I got special approval to take Chemistry without taking college algebra since my record is good. It's so hard not to feel stupid having to learn the most basics of things (Like I can recite the periodic table but I don't know what a slope is 🤣🤣) But your video put everything in place in less than five minutes. THANK YOU.

    • @EricBuffington
      @EricBuffington  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      you can rearrange the equation. When you move something to the opposite side of the = change the sign. So in your example -2x would become 2x and it would move to the right side of the = giving you the new equation in the y=mx+b format.

      the number in front of x is the slope the number on the end is the y-intercept. When there is no number in front of x, that means the number is 1.
