Tool usage guide
The Slope Intercept Calculator determines the slope, y-intercept, and full linear equation from two specific coordinate points or a series of paired observations. It provides the standard form equation y = mx + b along with the x-intercept, making it an essential tool for geometry, algebra, and basic data trend analysis.
Background
A student has two coordinates from a graph: (1, 2) and (5, 8).
Problem
Find the slope and the y-intercept to complete a homework assignment.
How to use
Enter 1 and 2 for Point 1, and 5 and 8 for Point 2, then set decimal places to 2.
Outcome
The tool returns a slope of 1.5 and the equation y = 1.5x + 0.5.
Background
An owner tracks monthly sales over three months: Month 1 ($100), Month 2 ($150), and Month 3 ($200).
Problem
Predict the growth rate and starting baseline using linear regression.
How to use
Input '1,100', '2,150', and '3,200' into the Data Pairs field.
Outcome
The tool identifies a slope of 50 (growth per month) and a y-intercept of 50 (baseline).
Yes, you can enter multiple x,y pairs in the data pairs field for regression analysis.
Enter one pair per line, separating the x and y values with a comma.
Vertical lines have an undefined slope; the tool will indicate if the change in x is zero.
Yes, use the decimal places option to set the rounding for all calculated values.
Yes, the tool calculates where the line crosses the horizontal axis (y=0).
