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 descends from left to right.

What is the rate of change in a linear function?

Back

The rate of change is the slope of the line, representing how much y changes for a unit change in x.

Front

What does the term 'descending' mean in the context of rates?

Back

'Descending' refers to a decrease in value, such as moving downwards in height or reducing quantity.
