What is the slope of a line?

Back

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

How do you determine if a set of ordered pairs represents y as a function of x?

Back

A set of ordered pairs represents y as a function of x if each x-value is paired with exactly one y-value. No x-value can repeat with a different y-value.
