Front

What is the slope?

Back

The slope is a measure of the steepness of a line, calculated as the ratio of the rise (vertical change) to the run (horizontal change).

Front

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-3, -4) and (7, 6).

Back

The slope is 1.

Front

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-12, -5) and (0, -8).

Back

The slope is -\frac{1}{4}.

Front

Slope is best described as_________________

Back

steepness of a line.

Front

Find the slope of the line below using rise/run.

Back

The slope is 3.

Front

What is the formula for calculating slope?

Back

The formula for slope (m) is m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}.

Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what does that indicate?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates a horizontal line.

Front

If a line has an undefined slope, what does that indicate?

Back

An undefined slope indicates a vertical line.

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

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

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

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