gradient

[john]

How do we create a gradient for a straight line and at the
same time calculate the value of the gradient?

 

[Tushar Mehta]

If you know the equation of the line, it will be in the form of
y=m*x+c. m is the gradient.

If you are asking how to estimate the slope of a straight line, see Help
for the SLOPE() function.

If you are asking how to draw a straight line on a graph that fits your
data, on the Chart menu select "Add Trendline", specify the type of
trend, and click on the options tab to specify that you want the
equation labeled on the graph.
