Yes. Stairs represent slope. In fact, today in math class we were discussing slope and similar products.
I would say that they have a rise over run (just like slope). So say that a stair goes up 2 feet every stair across, it's slope would be 2/1 or 2 (but i could be totally wrong).
A staircase is more like a stepped slope.
Rise divided by run. That is, the height of the stairs divided by how much they measure across (horizontally).

A steep slope.
I need to know what the codes are on stairs? Treads@risers an hand rails ?for what degree of slope
Rise over run

The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
The slope of a distance-time graph represents speed.
