How do you figure out the slopeee? Explain how. I have a test tomorrow and i am really scared!?

The slope is the value of m in the general equation y=mx + bSo, in the example the slope, m would be 2To find two coordinates just plug in a value of x and you will get the y value. For example when x=0, y=2(0) + 4 = 4. So (0,4) is one coordinate.The other two are just straight lines, so there slope is 0, and a coordinate could be anywhere on the line. For example in y=-1, (x,-1) where x can be any number is a coordinate
