Slope part 2: Calculating Slope

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the slope of a linear function, which measures the steepness of a graph. It covers different methods to find the slope, including examining the linear equation, using a slope triangle, and applying the slope formula. The tutorial provides examples to illustrate these methods and emphasizes the importance of aligning points correctly when using the formula. It concludes with practice questions to reinforce the concepts learned.
