The slope of a straight line is commonly described as rise over run. In other words, it's the ratio of the change in the y direction to the change in the x direction. Therefore, lines with greater slopes are closer to vertical. A vertical line has infinite slope, and the slope of a horizontal line is zero.
Steeper.
It gets longer Apex :)
When the slope of a line reaches zero it then will be parallel to the x or y axes depending if its a positive or a negative slope.
Not necessary because the line can have no slope at all and be as long as you want it to be.
A unit increase in the x-variable is associated with a greater increase in the y-variable.
The line gets less steep.
As the slope gets bigger the graph becomes closer to vertical - from bottom left to top right.
It gets steeper.
It gets longer Apex :)
the line goes down from left to right as the absolute value of the negative slope get bigger, the graph of the line gets steeper as the absolute value of the negative slope gets smaller, the graph of the line gets less steep ( apex )
As the slope get closer to zero, the graph becomes close to horizontal.
A. As the absolute value of the negative slope gets bigger, the graph of the line gets steeper B. The line goes up from left to right C. As the absolute value of the negative slope gets smaller, the graph of the line gets less steep D. The line goes down from left to right E. The line shifts down
less steep (apex)
It means that when 'x' gets bigger, 'y' gets smaller. On a graph, as you ride the graph from left to right, you slip lower.
For a positive number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets steeper when plotted on a graph. For a negative number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets less steep when plotted on a graph.
For a positive number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets steeper when plotted on a graph. For a negative number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets less steep when plotted on a graph.
