What is the slope of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, typically represented as 'm'. It is calculated as the ratio of the rise (change in y) to the run (change in x).

Front

What is the formula for calculating slope?

Back

Front

Find the slope between the points (1, 2) and (4, 5).

Back

Front

What does a positive slope indicate?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases, meaning the line rises from left to right.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, 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 0, indicating no change in y as x changes.

Front

What is the slope of a vertical line?

Back

The slope of a vertical line is undefined, as it would require division by zero.

Front

How do you interpret a slope of 2?

Back

A slope of 2 means that for every 1 unit increase in x, y increases by 2 units.
