What does it mean if the slope of a line is undefined?

Back

An undefined slope occurs when the line is vertical, meaning the x-coordinates of the two points are the same.

Front

If the slope of a line is positive, what does that indicate about the line's direction?

Back

A positive slope indicates that the line rises from left to right.

Front

If the slope of a line is negative, what does that indicate about the line's direction?

Back

A negative slope indicates that the line falls from left to right.
