Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

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

How do you find the slope from two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a linear relationship?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases, showing a direct relationship between the two variables.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a linear relationship?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, showing an inverse relationship between the two variables.

Front

What is the significance of the slope in real-world applications?

Back

The slope can represent rates of change in real-world contexts, such as speed, cost per item, or growth rates.
