Select two values of x: (x1 and x2) within the domain. Solve the equation of the line to find the corresponding values for y: (y1 and y2). Then the gradient = (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2)

How to calculate the gradient from the non linear graph?
Draw a tangent to the curve at the point where you need the gradient and find the gradient of the line by using gradient = up divided by across
How do you find the gradient of a line from a graph?
Select two points on the graph and suppose their coordinates are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) then the gradient = (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2) provided that x1 and x2 are different. If not, the gradient is not defined.
How can you find the instantaneous acceleration of an object whose curve on the velocity time graph is a straight line?
It is the gradient (slope) of the line.
What feature of a distance per time graph represents speed?
The gradient (slope) of the tangent to the graph at the given time - provided that it exists. If the graph is a straight line at that point, it is the gradient of that line.
What graph graph indicates that there is a linear relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variable?
a graph of the independent variable and dependant that shows a graph with a fixed gradient (I.E a line graph) The equation of the graph will be given by y = mx +c where m is the gradient and c is a constant

How is acceleration obtained from a velocity line graph?
the gradient of the graph
What is the steepness on a line graph called?
The steepness of a line graph is called the "gradient" ------------------------------- or slope.

What does the gradient of a line on a distance-time graph tell us about an object?
The gradient of a distance-time graph gives the object's speed.

The gradient (slope) of the line on the graph.
What is the steepness of a line graph called?
It is sometimes called the gradient.
If a straight line graph has a gradient of zero it must be horizontal?
