What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that the line rises from left to right.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that the line falls from left to right.

Front

What does it mean if two lines are parallel?

Back

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope and will never intersect.
