Having no slope and having a slope of 0 are the same?

To calculate the slope of a line, we use a ratio that compares the change in y (the rise) to the corresponding change in x (the run). So, m = (Change in y)/(Change in x) = Rise/run, where the change in x cannot be 0. If m > 0, the line is rising from left to right. If m < o, the line is falling from left to right. If m = 0, the line is a horizontal line. This means that the change in y is 0. If the line is vertical, this means that the change in x is 0, and since we cannot divide by 0, the slope of a vertical line is undefined.


The slop of a vertical line is?

the slope of a vertical line is 0.


What is the shape of a line with an infinite slope in economics?

Slope is the change in y (vertical dimension) with the change in x (horizontal dimension). On a Cartesian coordinate system, the slope is equal to infinity for change in x = 0, or a vertical line.


How does the slope of a line represent the rate of change?

Assuming the variables are x (horizontal) and y (vertical), the slope of a straight line is defined as "rise over run". That is, the change in y divided by a change in x. This is exactly what the rate of change in y with respect to x, is. If the line is a curve, the instantaneous slope is defined as the gradient of the tangent to the curve and is the limiting value (as dx tends to 0) of the same measure.


Why does a horizontal line have a slope of 0?

The slope of a line is defined as the rate of change on the vertical, or y axis, divided by the rate of change on the horizontal, or x axis.This is more commonly expressed as:Δy/ΔxFor example, a diagonal line that lies at a 45° angle relative to the horizontal axis will have a slope of 1/1 = 1.In the case of a horizontal line, it's rate of change on the y axis will be zero, this means that it's slope will be 0/Δx. Zero divided by anything equals zero, so that ends up being the slope of the line.


Slope of a vertical line?

The slope of a vertical line is undefined. Horizontal slope is 0.


If the slope of a line is 0 is the line horizontal or vertical?

if the slope is 0, the line is horizontal.

What is the equation of the vertical line that passes through the point 0-4?

What is edge speed in electronics?

A voltage is applied to a signal line. The voltage of the line changes gradually from 0 to +V. The "edge speed" is the rate of change of voltage of the line. A voltage is applied to a signal line. The voltage of the line changes gradually from 0 to +V. The "edge speed" is the rate of change of voltage of the line.


When is the slope of a line undefined?

When it is a vertical line (dividing by 0).


How many slopes do vertical lines have?

The slope of a vertical line is undefined. The slope of a horizontal line is 0. Hope this helps.
