Without graphing how can you tell which slope is steeper?
For a positive number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets steeper when plotted on a graph. For a negative number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets less steep when plotted on a graph.
Is the inverse of a line with positive slope a line with negative slope?
Never.
How can you tell if a graphed line with no numbers is positive or negative?
if the line slants down (from left to right) then it is negative. if the line slants up (from left to right) then it is positive. horisontal lines have a slope of "0" and and vertical ones are undefined.
The slope of a line is always positive?
Not always because it can also be negative
Can an integer be negative?
Integers are whole numbers that go from negative infinity to positive infinity. As such, they do cover the negative range of the number line.
Steeper lines have a?
larger slope if positive and a smaller slope if negative
Is there a relationship between the sign of the slope of a line and the angle the line makes with the x-axis?
Yes, there a relationship between the sign (positive or negative) of the slope of a line and the angle the line makes with the x-axisWhen a line slopes up from left to right, it has a positive slope. This means that a positive change in y is associated with a positive change in x. The steeper the slope the greater the rate of change in y in relation to the change in x.When a line slopes down from left to right, it has a negative slope. This means that a negative change in y is associated with a positive change in x.
What equation has a steeper line?
For a positive number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets steeper when plotted on a graph. For a negative number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets less steep when plotted on a graph.

Is a slope of a line always positive?
No because the slope of a line can be positive or negative
Which is typically steeper a positive or negative slope?
There's absolutely no connection or correlation whatsoever between the steepness and the direction of a slope.
What are some negative integers between a positive one on the number line?
There are no negative integers between positive ones on the number line.
How does a graph line with a steeper slpoe compare to one with a shallower slope?
Above the x axis, a steeper slope means more positive and therefore a faster rate of change of y with respect to x. This rate increases as the slope goes more and more away from the x axis. Below the x axis a steeper slope means more negative and therefore a faster rate of change of y with respect to x in the negative side. This rate increases as the slope goes more and more away from the x axis. For a distance vs. time graph. A steep positive slope means higher velocity. A steeper negative slope means higher velocity in the direction opposite to motion (declaration in a way).
What are the properties of a slope?
The slope is the ratio of the vertical increase divided by the horizontal increase. The slope of a flat line is 0. The slope of a flatter line is smaller than the slope of a steeper line. A positive slop indicates that the line move up from left to right. A negative slope means that the line moves down from left to right.
Considering the graph of a line with a negative slope what is true?
the line goes down from left to right as the absolute value of the negative slope get bigger, the graph of the line gets steeper as the absolute value of the negative slope gets smaller, the graph of the line gets less steep ( apex )
Can the baby of an O rhesus positive and a A rhesus negative parent be A rhesus positive?
no cause a positive and negative make a negative unless the positive has a really strong blood line
Does an oscilloscope display both positive and negative voltage?
Yes. By convention, the horizontal line is deflected upward for positive voltages and down for negative. With no input, adjust the line to co-incide with a central line on the graticule. A varying voltage that remains positive will be deflected above the line. A voltage that transits from positive to negative will draw above and below the line.
