What is 0
what is the slope of the line y=-2x+3
m=-2
what is steeper: a slope of 4 or a slope of 2
What is 4

describe what a positive slope looks like
What is it's a line that rises or starts low and ends high
What is the slope between the points (5,3) (5,-9)
What is undefined
what is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-2,4) and (7,-5)
m=-1
describe a negative slope
What is a line that falls or starts high and ends low.
what is the slope between the points (-2,8) (6,8)
What is 0
what is the slope of the line y-4x=5
m=4
Which slope is steeper? A slope of 8/3 or a slope of 24/9
Neither! The slopes are the same so they have the same steepness
