A line is the locus of points which what?
A line is the locus of points such that the gradient (slope) between that point and one fixed point in the plane is a constant. Technically, that definition does not include a vertical line because its gradient is not defined! You could get around that this by requiring that either the gradient is a constant or, if it is undefined, then the inverse gradient (dx/dy) is constant.
How do you use rise and run math?
Provided the run is not zero, rise/run gives the gradient, or slope, between two points.
What is the gradient of a line segment between the point (23) and (47)?
Points: (2, 3) and (4, 7) Gradient or slope: change in y/change in x = (7-3)/(4-2) = 4/2 = 2
When the data points on a graph tend to go up as they go to the right there is between the two variables?
Positive correlation
Can any 2 points on a straight line be used to find the gradient?
Yes beccause: (y1-y2)/(x1-x2) = gradient
Which equation would be used to determine the stream gradient along Moose Creek between points J and K?
j

In a coordinate graph of two related variables when does it make sense to connect the points?
When the data on the graph is continuous,it does make sense to connect the points on the graph of 2 related variables.
When you have three collinear points there is exactly one?
When you have three collinear points there is one gradient. I'm not sure what your question is specifically but when points are collinear they have the same gradient.
Fact must be known to determine the average slope between the two points?
The distance between two points must be known to determine the average slope between the two points. You must also know the change in elevation.
The function N gives a relationship between the variables Player and Points?
"Player" is the independent variable, and "Points" is the dependent variable.
When the data points on a graph are scattered with no clear pattern there is between the two variables?
No correlation. Answer provided by
How do you use rise and run math?
Provided the run is not zero, rise/run gives the gradient, or slope, between two points.
How does graphing relationships help you determine whether the relationship is proportional or not?
If the points lie on a straight line through the origin, the two variables are in direct proportion.
Fill in the blank When the data points on a graph are scattered with no clear pattern there is between the two variables?
no correalation
What is the gradient of a line segment between the point (23) and (47)?
Points: (2, 3) and (4, 7) Gradient or slope: change in y/change in x = (7-3)/(4-2) = 4/2 = 2
In addition to the distance between the two points what other fact must be known to determine the average slope between the two points?
change in elevlation
