What is a negative slope?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as one variable increases, the other variable decreases. It represents a downward trend on a graph.

Front

What does the point (0,0) represent in a graph?

Back

The point (0,0) represents the origin, where no cookies were sold and no money was made.

Front

How do you find the slope between two points?

Back

The slope is calculated by taking the difference in the y-values and dividing it by the difference in the x-values (rise/run).

Front

What does a slope of -5/3 mean?

Back

A slope of -5/3 means that for every 3 units you move to the right on the x-axis, you move down 5 units on the y-axis.

Front

What does it mean if a graph has a zero slope?

Back

A zero slope means that there is no change in the y-value as the x-value changes, indicating a horizontal line.

Front

What is the formula for calculating speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

If a car drives 360 miles in 3 hours, what is its speed?

Back

The speed of the car is 120 miles per hour.

Front

What does it mean if a graph is increasing?

Back

An increasing graph indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value also increases.

Front

What is the significance of the y-intercept in a linear equation?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, representing the value of y when x is 0.

Front

How can you interpret the slope of a line in a real-world context?

Back

The slope can represent rates of change, such as speed, cost per item, or productivity.
