What is the slope of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, usually represented as 'm' in the equation of a line (y = mx + b). It indicates how much y changes for a unit change in x.

How do you identify the slope from the equation y = mx + b?

Back

In the equation y = mx + b, 'm' represents the slope of the line. For example, in y = 2x + 3, the slope is 2.

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

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 about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, meaning the line falls from left to right.

What is the slope of a horizontal line?

Back

The slope of a horizontal line is 0, as there is no change in y regardless of the change in x.
