FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is slope?

Back

Slope is a measure of the steepness or incline of a line, typically represented as a ratio of the vertical change to the horizontal change between two points on the line.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the formula for calculating slope?

Back

The formula for slope (m) is m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two points on the line.

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, meaning the line rises from left to right.

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, meaning the line falls from left to right.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is zero slope?

Back

Zero slope indicates a horizontal line where there is no vertical change as the x-value changes.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is undefined slope?

Back

Undefined slope occurs in a vertical line where there is no horizontal change, leading to division by zero in the slope formula.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you identify the slope from a graph?

Back

To identify the slope from a graph, select two points on the line, determine the rise (vertical change) and run (horizontal change), and use the slope formula.
