What does the slope represent in a linear function?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

How do you calculate the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

What does a positive slope indicate about a linear function?

Back

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

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a linear function?

Back

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