To find the change in y and change in x from point A to point B, you can use the following formulas:
1. Change in y (Δy) = y_B – y_A
2. Change in x (Δx) = x_B – x_A
You need the coordinates of points A and B for this calculation. If point A has coordinates (x_A, y_A) and point B has coordinates (x_B, y_B), simply plug the respective values into the formulas.
For example, if A is (2, 3) and B is (5, 7):
– Change in y = 7 – 3 = 4
– Change in x = 5 – 2 = 3
So, the answers would be:
From A to B, the change in y is 4.
From A to B, the change in x is 3.
Check your points and do the calculation! If you have the coordinates, feel free to share them for specific calculations.
