Hi,
I've these values:
These values represents a straight line in a graph. Using the equation y=mx+b, and assuming b=0, I would like to know the slope of the straight line. Since, it's the m variable that gives me the slope, so,
[itex]m=\frac{y}{x}[/itex]Applying this equation, I get the results:
With these results, the slope is around 39000000? Shouldn't I get a more reasonable value, like 3?
What is the slope?
Thanks,
