SLOPE

Definition: The SLOPE function in Excel calculates the slope of a linear regression line between two sets of data.

Syntax: ==SLOPE(known_y’s, known_x’s).

Situation: This function is beneficial when needing to determine the slope of a linear regression line.

Example: For two sets of data A1:A10 and B1:B10, the formula =SLOPE(A1:A10, B1:B10) would yield a value representing the slope of the linear regression line.
