Finding Slope from a Table, Graph, and Points

Front

What is the slope?

Back

The slope is a measure of the steepness or incline of a line, typically represented as 'm' in the slope-intercept form of a linear equation (y = mx + b).

Front

Find the slope of the line that passes through (1, -19) and (-2, -7).

Back

The slope is -4, calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

Find the Slope: (3, 2) and (3, 5)

Back

The slope is undefined because the line is vertical.

Front

What type of slope is represented by the equation y = -2x + 3?

Back

The slope is negative.

Front

What is the slope of a horizontal line?

Back

The slope of a horizontal line is zero.

Front

What is the slope of a vertical line?

Back

The slope of a vertical line is undefined.

Front

Find the slope of the line that passes through (4, 1) and (6, 5).

Back

The slope is 2.

Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

It indicates that the line is horizontal.

Front

If a line has a positive slope, what does that indicate about the direction of the line?

Back

It indicates that the line rises from left to right.

Front

If a line has a negative slope, what does that indicate about the direction of the line?

Back

It indicates that the line falls from left to right.
