FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you identify a positive slope on a graph?
Back
A positive slope means that as you move from left to right on the graph, the line rises. This indicates that the y-values increase as the x-values increase.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you identify a negative slope on a graph?
Back
A negative slope means that as you move from left to right on the graph, the line falls. This indicates that the y-values decrease as the x-values increase.

What does a slope of zero indicate?
Back
A slope of zero indicates a horizontal line, meaning there is no vertical change as you move along the line.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you calculate the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?
Back
The slope (m) is calculated using the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (2, 4) and (6, 12)?
Back
The slope is 2, calculated as m = (12 - 4) / (6 - 2) = 8 / 4 = 2.
