Slope refers to the steepness of a line. Mathematically, it can be defined as:
slope = (difference in y-coordinates) / (difference in x-coordinates). This should be measured along a fairly short distance, since the actual slope can be different at different points.
Slope of the graph will give you speed.
The slope for a straight line graph is the ratio of the amount by which the graph goes up (the rise) for every unit that it goes to the right (the run). If the graph goes down, the slope is negative. For a curved graph, the gradient at any point is the slope of the tangent to the graph at that point.
The slope of a distance-time graph represents speed.
the slope.
The slope of the speed-vs-time graph is the magnitude of acceleration.
Slope of the graph will give you speed.
The slope of a line can be determined by examining the graph; only one line through a point has a particular slope.
Slope cannot be determined by one number. You need either an equation, or two points that can be put on a graph.
A position time graph can show you velocity. As time changes, so does position, and the velocity of the object can be determined. For a speed time graph, you can derive acceleration. As time changes, so does velocity, and the acceleration of the object can be determined.If you are plotting velocity (speed) versus time, the slope is the acceleration.

acceleration
the slope at any point on the graph is the acceleration
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
The slope of the line is equal to the velocity of the object. Since the slope of a line is determined as rise over run, the slope of this line would be meters over seconds. This is the unit for velocity, m/s.rise/run = meters/secondThe labels on the graph will give you much more information than you think.

"Slope" is the steepness of the line on any graph.
