In maths what is the name of a straight line from a point on a graph?

For any line, there needs to be two points.
If the line passes through points and extends in both directions forever, it's a line.
If the line just goes between the two points, its called a line segment.
If the line goes through both points but only extends in one direction, it's a ray.

How do you graph using point slope?
A straight line on the Cartesian plane
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.
Why is the distance time graph a straight line for?
A straight line on a distance - time graph represents a "constant velocity".
How do you create a straight line that slopes up on a position-time graph?
A straight line with a positive slope on a position-time graph is the graph of an object that's moving in a straight line with constant speed.
What is the graph for Y equals X-8?
The graph of y = x - 8 is a straight line. The slope of the line is 1, and it intersects the y-axis at the point y = -8.
How do you tell whether a graph shows a constant or variable rate of change?
The slope of each point on the line on the graph is the rate of change at that point. If the graph is a straight line, then its slope is constant. If the graph is a curved line, then its slope changes.
How do you graph using point slope?
A straight line on the Cartesian plane
Why is the graph of log against pH a straight line?
pH is a logarithmic scale; because of the way calculus and maths works, graphing such a scale against a log results in a straight line.
Why the straight line in the graph does not start from zero?
There is no reason why any graph should start from any particular point.
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.
In an acceleration graph showing speed versus time a straight line shows the acceleration is?
A graph that shows speed versus time is not an acceleration graph.The slope of the graph at any point is the acceleration at that time.A straight line shows that the acceleration is constant.
Is the first derivative of a function is a constant then its graph is?
A line. The derivative of a function is its slope. If the slope is a constant then the graph is a line.
A straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate?
The straight horizontal line on a graph is referred to as the x-axis. The vertical line on a graph is the y-axis.
Why is the distance time graph a straight line for?
A straight line on a distance - time graph represents a "constant velocity".
What definition for a nonlinear graph?
a graph that does not have a straight line
How do you create a straight line that slopes up on a position-time graph?
A straight line with a positive slope on a position-time graph is the graph of an object that's moving in a straight line with constant speed.
What is a correlation on a scatter graph in maths?
it is the line in the middle of the crosses
