Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x. It indicates how steep the line is.

Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what does that indicate?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates a horizontal line, meaning there is no change in y as x changes.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, resulting in a downward slant from left to right.

If the slope of a line is 1, what is the angle of inclination?
