Rise Over Run Lesson

Slope/Rate of Change

Slope/Rate of Change

When we find the rate of change of a linear function, the rate of change will be constant. When talking about rate of change of linear functions, we commonly call it slope!

Different types of slope

There are four different types of slope:

​ Positive Negative Zero Undefined

Remember slope is rise over run! So for example, if we were to find the slope between these two points, we would count how many boxes we went up and place that over how many boxes we went to the right.
