Do all lines have a slope?
Although all lines have the relationship that defines slope, one can argue that not all lines do have one. The exception would be vertical lines. Slope is defined as the vertical rate of change divided by the horizontal rate of change. In the case of a vertical line, there is no horizontal rate of change, and calculating slope would cause division by zero. The closest you could come to expressing the slope of a vertical line would be ∞
Does in linear graphs the slope of the line change with the x-coordinate?
No. A linear graph has the same slope anywhere.
What is Name of slant on a line graph?
The name of the slant on a line graph is called the slope. The slope represents the rate of change between two points on the graph and is calculated by dividing the change in the y-coordinates by the change in the x-coordinates. A positive slope indicates an upward trend, while a negative slope indicates a downward trend.
If one line has a slope of then the slope of a line parallel to it would be?
The same. Parallel lines have the same slope.
What does the slope of the line represent?
The slope represents the RATE OF CHANGE. Example: the distance (y) over speed (x) the formula is rise÷run or y2-y1÷x2-x1= m Slope is represented as m in the equations y=mx+b and y=mx
