Slope is the "steepness" of a line. If the line is on a grid, it can be calculated by dividing rise/run. If the line is given in the form of the equation y = mx + b the slope is the value of m.

Explain why the equation of a vertical line cannot be in slope-intercept form?
A vertical line on a graph has an infinite slope, and no y-intercept.
What is the slope of a horizontial line?
The slope would be zero.In contrast, the slope of a vertical line would be infinite.
What is the slope intercept form of a linear equation explain why this form is called slope intercept form?
y=mx+b, because m stands for the slope and b is the y-intercept
If you have a 3to1 slope what percentage slope would that be?
50%
Is it more difficult to run up a ramp with a slope of 15 or a ramp with a slope of 5 Explain.?
The answer depends on what causes the difficulty: the steepness or the distance which you have to run.
What would a graph that has a negative slope show?
It would have a downhill slope from left to right
How does the principle of diminishing marginal utility explain the slope of the demand curve?
The principle of diminishing marginal utility explains the slope of the demand curve by letting us be able to see which direction the slope is in, which is always downward.
Are the function F of x equals -2over 3 plus 1 and determine the slope explain?
The function that is given has a constant value and therefore, its slope is 0.
Is 5x - 3 a slope of 0?
this would be a slope of 5
If the velocity is constant describe th slope?
The slope of a time-distance chart would be a constant. The slope of a time-velocity chart would be 0.
If one line has a slope of then the slope of a line parallel to it would be?
The same. Parallel lines have the same slope.
