Best Answer:

The impression made by aline graph change when you make the horizontal scale shorter but keep the vertical scale is that the new line will be much steeper than the original!!

What does the slope mean on a line graph?

Rate of change of the "vertical" variable in relation to the "horizontal" variable.


What does a steep line on a line graph represent?

It represents the fact that a small change in the variable which is plotted on the horizontal axis with the given scale, is associated with a large change in the variable potted on the vertical axis with its scale.Note that the steepness can be changed by simply increasing the scale factor on the horizontal axis or decreasing it on the vertical axis.


What is co-variance?

Covariance is a measure of how much two variables change together.If one variable changes how much will the other change?Example people's length and weight change together (within certain limits) taller people are in general heavier than shorter people. These two variables have great covariance.Whereas eye color has little relationship to height. those two variables have small (or no) covariance.


What is steepness in graphs?

Steepness in graphs refers to the angle or slope of a line, indicating how quickly a value changes in relation to another. It is often quantified by the slope, which is calculated as the rise (change in the vertical direction) over the run (change in the horizontal direction). A steeper line suggests a greater rate of change, while a flatter line indicates a slower rate of change. In mathematical terms, a slope greater than one is considered steep, while a slope less than one is relatively flat.


What is the difference between absolute variation and relative variation?

relative change is a proprotional change where absolute change is a complete change.........

How does the length of a shadow change during the yearwhy does this happen?

The length of the shadow (on a flat, horizontal floor) depends on the height of the Sun. If the Sun is higher in the sky, the shadow will become shorter.

How does the change in angle changes the velocity?

Changing the angle of an object's motion will affect both the horizontal and vertical components of its velocity. For example, if you increase the angle of launch for a projectile, it will have a greater vertical component and a shorter horizontal component. This will result in a change in the overall velocity vector of the object.
