FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the slope formula?
Back
The slope formula 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-coordinate increases, the y-coordinate also increases, meaning the line rises from left to right.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does a negative slope indicate?
Back
A negative slope indicates that as the x-coordinate increases, the y-coordinate decreases, meaning the line falls from left to right.

What does a zero slope indicate?
Back
A zero slope indicates a horizontal line, where there is no change in the y-coordinate as the x-coordinate changes.

What does an undefined slope indicate?
Back
An undefined slope indicates a vertical line, where there is no change in the x-coordinate as the y-coordinate changes.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you find the slope between two points (3, 4) and (7, 8)?
