Line Equations
Slope-Intercept Form: y = 0.75x + 0
Point-Slope Form: y - 0 = 0.75(x - 0)
Standard Form:-0.75x + y = 0
Interpretation
Positive Slope: Line rises from left to right
Rise/Run: Vertical change over horizontal change
What is Slope?
Slope measures the steepness of a line. It's the ratio of vertical change (rise) to horizontal change (run).
Formula
m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁). A positive slope means the line rises; negative means it falls.
Applications
Used in construction (ramps, roofs), roads, economics (rates of change), and physics (velocity, acceleration).
Preguntas Frecuentes
What does zero slope mean?
The line is horizontal, with no incline.
When is slope undefined?
When the line is vertical (horizontal change = 0).
How do I interpret a slope of 2?
For every unit you move horizontally, you move up 2 units vertically.
