Finding Slope

Front

What is the slope formula?

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.

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.

Front

What does a zero slope indicate?

Back

A zero slope indicates that the line is horizontal, meaning there is no change in y as x changes.

Front

What does an undefined slope indicate?

Back

An undefined slope occurs when a line is vertical, meaning the x-values are the same and there is no change in x.

Front

Calculate the slope of the points (2, 3) and (5, 11).

Front

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (4, 2) and (4, 5)?

Back

The slope is undefined because the x-values are the same (4).
