Slope?

Find the derivative of the function and evaluate in the point where you want to find the slope.

rise over run

I reckon the next question is gonna be "what does rise over run on a log log graph mean?"

I'm not sure about what I'm writing (i just learned this in physics too):

after graphing the line, just simply measure the slope with a ruler?

ie: rise over run, which would mean for example, 25mm over 50 mm or something like that in which case the slope would be 1/2.

Ok so my teacher says that as long as the log-log graph is linear then it's correct and you can find the slope and then use that in other calculations. Is it possible tho, to have a linear log-log graph but be completely wrong? so the slope of that incorrect linear line would completely mess up all the calculations?

If a function is linear (be it in all the space or just in some part) the slope is constant and that's why you can use it to calculate things. If the function has curves, it's slope changes from point to point.

As long as you stay in range (where the slope is constant, and the function is linear) your calculations will be fine.

Take the derivative of the log-log functionn, if that is constant then slope is constant. If that is function instead then you cannot use for cals cause it is function.
Linear function always has the constant slope...

Doesn't matter slope is always best fit line or learn how to write algorithms.

Wat? I was just saying some people were assuming the question was 'how do I find slope' even though the OP obviously knows how to find the slope of a line lol
