If you have the equation, yes.
If the equation is given in terms of x and y, make y the subject of the equation. That is, expres the equation in the form y = mx + c where m and c are constants. Then the gradient is m.
The gradient of a line is the same as the slope of a line. It will tell someone measuring the line how straight the line is.
You must find the slope, if it is positive, then the line is always increasing. If it is negative, then the line is always decreasing.
no. you tell me. why is this not on the internet.
It depends on which calculator! If the data is linear, you can estimate the slope of the line and the y-intercept from graphing the data. By graphing the data, you will be able to tell if it forms a straight line or not.
The gradient of a distance-time graph gives the object's speed.
The equation does not have and y variable in it: it is of the form x = c. Alternatively, the x coordinates of both points are the same and the y coordinates are not.
so that you can easily tell what the answer is by extending the line on the graph instead of calculating it
Here is a great site that will tell you everything you know about graphing calculator programming, and its got programs there to! See the related link, "Graphing Calculator Programming".

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.
u tell
it is impossible to tell the slope of a line graph without proper points to evaluate from.
