Back
Slope is a measure of the steepness or incline of a line, calculated as the change in the y-coordinate divided by the change in the x-coordinate (rise over run).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you identify the y-intercept from a graph?
Back
The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented as (0, y).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does a positive slope indicate about a line?
Back
A positive slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value also increases, showing a direct relationship.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How can you determine the slope from two points on a line?
Back
The slope can be determined using the formula: slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points.
