A line that slopes to the right and up has a positive slope.
The straight line with no slope is a point
a vertical line
If the line slants up and to the right, it has a positive slope. If it is slanting up and to the left, it has a negative slope.
Points: (-2, 7) and (3, 6) the slope is -1/5 Points: (4, 2) and (9, 1) the slope is -1/5 Both slopes are the same and so therefore they are parallel lines
Th opposite reciprocal. So if one line has a slope of 2 then the other line will have a slope of -1/2
The line has a negative slope (or negative gradient).When the angle between the line and the positive direction of Ox is obtuse then the slope is negative. Conversely, when the angle is acute, the slope is positive.
A line extending from the upper left to the lower right has a negative slope.
Any continuous line as long as it does not have a vertical section.
A line whose slope is not constant or not defined. A curved line, a discontinuous line, a vertical line are some examples.
I won't tell you directly, but I will explain how to find out to you. In the type of equation you are faced with now (y=mx+b), m represents the slope. So, in y=3x+10, the slope is 3. Now, find the slope of the other equation and see which is greater. Lines with greater slopes are steeper.
A line that is vertical, or going up and down like a pencil.
