The gradient formula is a way to find the slope of a straight line using two points. The formula is change in y divided by change in x, which is often written as y2 minus y1 over x2 minus x1.
Year 8 Maths tutoring helps students strengthen algebra, number skills, reasoning and problem solving. It is useful for students who are falling behind as well as those who want stronger maths foundations before Years 9 and 10.
