What is the slope of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, calculated as the rise (change in y) over the run (change in x).

What does a positive slope indicate?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value also increases, showing an upward trend.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value decreases, showing a downward trend.

How do you identify the y-intercept in an equation?

Back

The y-intercept is the value of y when x is 0, often represented as the constant term in the equation of a line.
