Slope from 2 Points, Graph, Table

Front

What is the formula to calculate the slope (m) between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line on a graph?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as the x-values increase, the y-values also increase, meaning the line rises from left to right.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line on a graph?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as the x-values increase, the y-values decrease, meaning the line falls from left to right.

Front

What does a zero slope indicate about a line on a graph?

Back

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

Front

What does an undefined slope indicate about a line on a graph?

Back

An undefined slope indicates a vertical line, meaning the x-value does not change as y changes.

Front

Calculate the slope of the line through the points (1, 2) and (3, 6).

Back

Front

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

Back

The slope is undefined because the x-values are the same, indicating a vertical line.
