What does the slope of a speed-time graph represent?
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
What is the slope of constant velocity?
The Slope (which represents acceleration) of a constant velocity graph is Zero.
What does the slope of a speed vs time graph represent?
magnitude of acceleration at every point on the graph
The slope of velocity versus time graph gives?
If your graph shows velocity on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis, then the slope of the graph represents the acceleration. More specifically, the slope of the graph at a specific point represents the acceleration at that instantaneous point in time. So if the slope of the graph doesn't change (i.e. the graph is a straight line), then the acceleration is constant and doesn't change over time. In calculus, this is represented as the derivative: The derivative of velocity with respect to time equals the acceleration.
Velocity is the slope of the displacement vs time graph?
Velocity is NOT the slope of the acceleration vs. time graph. Velocity is the area under the acceleration vs. time graph. Velocity is the slope of a position vs. time graph, though. For you Calculus Junkies, v = the integral of acceleration with respect to time.
What does a slope of a time graph represent?
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
What does slope of a speed time graph represent?
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
What does the slope of a speed-time graph represent?
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
The slope of a line on a speed-time graph represents?
Acceleration.
What is the slope of constant velocity?
The Slope (which represents acceleration) of a constant velocity graph is Zero.
Does the slope of a speed versus time graph represents acceleration?
Exactly.
What does slope of velocity time graph represents?
Magnitude of acceleration (but conveys no informationregarding acceleration's direction).
What does the slope of a speed vs time graph represent?
magnitude of acceleration at every point on the graph
How would a graph of negative and positive acceleration differ?
This depends on what the graph represents. If it is a graph of velocity on the vertical and time on the horizontal, then if acceleration is at a constant rate, the graph will be a straight line with positive slope (pointing 'up'). If acceleration stops, then the graph will be a horizontal line (zero acceleration or deceleration). If it is deceleration (negative acceleration), then the graph will have negative slope (pointing down).

Is acceleration the slope of the velocitys vs the time graph?
Yes, acceleration is the slope of a velocity versus time graph.
