What are the four types of slope?

Back

The four types of slope are positive slope, negative slope, zero slope, and undefined slope.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does a positive slope indicate?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value also increases, resulting in an upward trend.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does a negative slope indicate?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value decreases, resulting in a downward trend.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is zero slope?

Back

Zero slope occurs when a line is horizontal, meaning there is no vertical change as the x-value changes.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is undefined slope?

Back

Undefined slope occurs when a line is vertical, meaning there is no horizontal change as the x-value changes.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you calculate slope?

Back

Slope (m) is calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two points on the line.
