What does the slope of a linear function represent?
Back
The slope indicates the rate of change of y with respect to x, showing how much y increases or decreases as x increases.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you find the slope from two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?
Back
Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).
