What does it mean for a point to be a solution of an equation?

Back

A point is a solution of an equation if substituting its coordinates into the equation makes the equation true.

What is the slope of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (rise over run).
