Slope

What exactly is slope?

It’s how far up or down you go for every one you go over.

It’s how steep or how flat a line is.

The rate of change.

The multiplicative constant.

How do you calculate slope?

We are going to calculate slope in 4 different ways.

Using the graph.

Using a table.

Using two points.

Using the equation.

Straight up and down

Slope is undefined.

Equation is x = #

Vertical line

Flat

Slope is zero

Equation is y = #

Horizontal line

Multiple Choice

What is the slope of the line with the equation y = -4x - 1 ?

-4

-1

Graphing

Graph the line y = -4x - 1

Multiple Choice

What is the slope of the line with the equation y = -1

-1

Undefined

Graphing

Graph the line y = -1

Have equal slopes.

Never intersect

Parallel Lines

Have have "flip & switch" slopes.

In this example, one line has a slope of 7/6 and the other line has a slope of -6/7

Intersect at a 90° angle.

Perpendicular Lines

Labeling

Write in the slopes of the parallel and perpendicular lines.

Drag labels to their correct position on the image
