Exploring Types of Slope

The video tutorial explains three types of slopes: positive, negative, and zero. A positive slope occurs when both vertical and horizontal changes are in the positive direction, resulting in a positive slope value. A negative slope is when the vertical change is negative while the horizontal change is positive, leading to a negative slope value. A zero slope happens when there is no vertical change, resulting in a slope value of zero. Each type of slope is explained with examples to illustrate the concept.

Which of the following is NOT a type of slope discussed in the video?

• Positive slope

• Negative slope

• Zero slope

• Undefined slope

What does a positive slope indicate about the direction of the vertical and horizontal changes?

• Vertical change is positive, horizontal change is negative

• Vertical change is negative, horizontal change is positive

• Both changes are in the positive direction

• Both changes are in the negative direction

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

• 2

• 0

• 1

• -1

Which direction does the horizontal change go in a positive slope?

• Undefined x direction

• Zero x direction

• Positive x direction

• Negative x direction

In a negative slope, what is the direction of the vertical change?

• Positive

• Negative

• Undefined

• Zero

For a negative slope, if the change in y is -2 and the change in x is 2, what is the slope?

• 0

• 2

• 1

• -1

In a negative slope, if the change in y is -2 and the change in x is 2, what is the result of dividing these changes?

• Positive

• Undefined

• Negative

• Zero

What does a zero slope indicate about the vertical change?

• It is negative

• It is undefined

• It is zero

• It is positive

If the vertical change is zero and the horizontal change is 4, what is the slope?

• 0

• 1

• -1

• 4

What happens to the slope when the numerator is zero?

• It becomes positive

• It becomes undefined

• It becomes zero

• It becomes negative
