If a line has a slope of -3, what does this indicate about the line's direction?

Back

A slope of -3 indicates that the line falls steeply from left to right.

How can you determine the slope from a graph?

Back

The slope can be determined by finding the rise over run between two points on the line.

What does a slope of 0 indicate about a line?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates that the line is horizontal.
