Slope from a Table

Front

What is the slope?

Back

The slope is a measure of the steepness of a line, calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x.

Front

What does a positive slope indicate?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases.

Front

What is the first step in finding the slope from a table?

Back

The first step is to identify the initial values of x and y.

Front

What is the second step in finding the slope from a table?

Back

The second step is to find the pattern in the x-values (change in x).

Front

What is the third step in finding the slope from a table?

Back

The third step is to find the pattern in the y-values (change in y).

What is the fourth step in finding the slope from a table?

Front

If the change in y is 6 and the change in x is 2, what is the slope?
