    The increase in y compared to that of x in a linear equation is called the slope.

    In an equation in the form y = mx + b, the slope is m.

    For y = x - 1, the slope is 1. (the 1 is implied, since x = 1x)

    As a fraction, this would be 1/1.

    Slope is written as rise over run, or change in y over change in x.

    Therefore, as x increases by 1, y increases by 1.

    For y = 2x - 1, the slope is 2.

    As a fraction, this would be 2/1.

    Slope is written as rise over run, or change in y over change in x.

    Therefore, as x increases by 1, y increases by 2.
