This slope reference table shows the slope (m) for a range of x₁ values, assuming a y₁ of 2, a x₂ of 3 and a y₂ of 8. Every figure is computed with the same engine that powers our Slope Calculator, so the numbers are exact.

How to use this table
Find the row closest to your x₁ and read across to the slope (m). For a value between two rows, the real figure sits between them — or enter your exact numbers in the Slope Calculator for a precise answer.
Need a value that is not in the table? — the Slope Calculator does it instantly, for free, with the formula and a worked example built in.
