What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope of a line represents the rate of change of the y-value with respect to the x-value. It indicates how steep the line is and the direction it goes (positive or negative).

What does it mean for a line to have a positive slope?

Back

A line with a positive slope rises from left to right, indicating that as the x-value increases, the y-value also increases.

Front

What does it mean for a line to have a negative slope?

Back

A line with a negative slope falls from left to right, indicating that as the x-value increases, the y-value decreases.
