Directions:
Left-Click and drag either of
the two points to the desired location.
Given a line segment connnected by two points on the parabola y
= x^2, the slope of the segment and it's y-intercept can be found by the
following:
If (P, P^2) and (Q,
Q^2),
then m = Q - P and b
= PQ.
Thank you for your time.
