What is the formula for calculating the slope between two points?

Back

The slope (m) is calculated using the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as the x-values increase, the y-values decrease, meaning the line falls from left to right.

Front

What is the slope of a horizontal line?

Back

The slope of a horizontal line is zero.

Front

What is the slope of a vertical line?

Back

The slope of a vertical line is undefined.

Front

How can you determine if two lines are parallel?

Back

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope.

Front

How can you determine if two lines are perpendicular?

Back

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

Front

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (3, 4) and (3, 8)?

Back

The slope is undefined because the x-coordinates are the same.

Front

If the slope of a line is 2, what does this mean in terms of rise and run?

Back

A slope of 2 means that for every 1 unit you move to the right (run), the line rises 2 units (rise).

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -3x + 5?

Back

The slope of the line is -3.

Front

What does a slope of 1 indicate about a line?

Back

A slope of 1 indicates that the line rises 1 unit for every 1 unit it moves to the right, creating a 45-degree angle with the x-axis.
