FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the definition of slope?
Back
Slope is a measure of the steepness or incline of a line, typically represented as 'm' in the equation of a line. It is calculated as the change in the y-coordinate divided by the change in the x-coordinate (rise over run).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you find the slope from a table of values?
Back
To find the slope from a table, select two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) from the table and use the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does a slope of 0 indicate about a line?
Back
A slope of 0 indicates that the line is horizontal, meaning there is no change in the y-value as the x-value changes.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does an undefined slope indicate?
Back
An undefined slope indicates that the line is vertical, meaning the x-value does not change as the y-value changes.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Calculate the slope between the points (2, 3) and (5, 9).
Back
m = (9 - 3) / (5 - 2) = 6 / 3 = 2.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
If a line passes through the points (1, 2) and (4, 2), what is the slope?
Back
m = (2 - 2) / (4 - 1) = 0 / 3 = 0.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the slope of a line that rises 3 units for every 1 unit it runs?
Back
The slope is 3, represented as m = 3.
