What is a positive slope?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value also increases, resulting in an upward line from left to right.

Front

What is a negative slope?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value decreases, resulting in a downward line from left to right.

Front

What is a zero slope?

Back

A zero slope indicates that there is no change in the y-value as the x-value changes, resulting in a horizontal line.

Front

What is an undefined slope?

Back

An undefined slope occurs when a vertical line is drawn, meaning the x-value does not change while the y-value does.

Front

How do you identify a positive slope on a graph?

Back

A positive slope can be identified by a line that rises from left to right.

Front

How do you identify a negative slope on a graph?

Back

A negative slope can be identified by a line that falls from left to right.

Front

What does a horizontal line represent in terms of slope?

Back

A horizontal line represents a zero slope.

Front

What does a vertical line represent in terms of slope?

Back

A vertical line represents an undefined slope.

Front

If a line has a slope of 3, what does this indicate?

Back

This indicates that for every 1 unit increase in x, the y-value increases by 3 units.

Front

If a line has a slope of -2, what does this indicate?

Back

This indicates that for every 1 unit increase in x, the y-value decreases by 2 units.
