Slope from Two Points

Front

What is the formula to calculate the slope (m) between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases, meaning the line rises from left to right.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, meaning the line falls from left to right.

Front

What does an undefined slope indicate?

Back

An undefined slope indicates a vertical line, where the change in x is zero.

Front

What does a slope of zero indicate?

Back

A slope of zero indicates a horizontal line, where the change in y is zero.

Back

Front

Find the slope of the line that passes through: (2, 3) and (5, 7)

Back

Front

Find the slope of the line that passes through: (0, 0) and (0, 5)

undefined

Front

Find the slope of the line that passes through: (1, 1) and (4, 1)

Back

0

Front

If the slope of a line is 3, what does this mean in terms of rise over run?

Back

For every 3 units the line rises, it runs 1 unit to the right.
