Slope
This is the formula used to calculate the slope of a line.
What is Rise/Run?
This is the formula used to calculate the slope-intercept form.
y=mx+b
A line with this type of slope shows that as one variable increases, the other also increases.
What is a positive slope?
A line with this type shows that it is a vertical line, but does not move up nor down.
What is an undefined slope?
This is an example of a real-life situation where a negative slope is observed.
(FROM THE SLIDE)
What is a car going down a hill?
If the formula is y=3x+5, what is the y intercept?
What is 5?
If a line rises 4 units and runs 2 units, this is the slope of the line.
What is 2?
If the slope crosses the y-axis at -7 and m=5, what is the formula for the slope intercept?
What is y=5x-7?
If a line runs 5 units and rises 15 units, this is the slope of the line.
What is 3?
What is the slope intercept formula if the slope crosses the y-axis at 6 and the rise/run is 20/4?
What is y=5x+6
