Slopes and Equations

Front

What is a positive slope?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value also increases. The line rises 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. The line falls from left to right.

Front

What is a zero slope?

Back

A zero slope indicates a horizontal line where the y-value remains constant regardless of the x-value.

Front

What is an undefined slope?

Back

An undefined slope occurs with a vertical line where the x-value remains constant, and the slope cannot be calculated.
