No. If you think about it, upstairs toilets actually drain through the walls and down under the foundation and footings, so you would have a 100% slope there. You can have too little slope, but never too much, since gravity is actually what drains a toilet.
Yes you can. Pipes that run vertical are not a problem because friction is not acting on either the solid or the liquid matter. Where a pipe is sloping steeply the water can run away leaving solid matter behind.
The slope of a horizontal line is zero. It has a slope, but slope = 0 and this makes it different from a vertical line which has a slope that is undefined because you cannot divide 0 over 0 which is how much a vertical line rises and runs.Ways to find slope:(y2-y1)/(x2-x1 )orrise/run
Any line, except a vertical line has a well defined slope. It cannot be undefined. In much the same way as you cannot be undefined!
Slope = (vertical change)/(horizontal change), commonly referred to as rise/run. If the graph is a straight line, then you can count squares or measure how much change in vertical, over a specified change in horizontal. If it is a curve, then you need to have a tangent line (a line that touches the curve at a specific point and has the same slope as the line), then you can determine the slope of that line using the method described, above.
The slope is (change in 'y' produced by a change in 'x') divided by (change in 'x' that produces it). The slope of any horizontal line on the graph is zero because the value of 'y' is the same everywhere on the line. No matter how much you change 'x' along the line, 'y' never changes.
The slope is the magnitude of the line upwards or downwards, commonly referred to as "rise over run". The rise is how much the graph goes up in a certain distance, and the run is how much the graph goes over horizontally that same distance. To find the slope in that situation, you have to divide the rise by the run.
All drains slope 1/4 inch per foot, minimum. Too much slope,though, can mean pulling water out of the trap or goose neck on a toilet.
With a level
First thing you should do is call a plumber. Drain lines are not supposed to leak. Your drain line is clogged and needs to be snaked out and the leaking pipe repaired.
Time to give up and call a plumber to clean your drain line.

One quarter inch per foot is standard "slope". This equates to a quarter bubble on a level. If you don't have at least one eighth of an inch "slope", your drain will not work properly and will clog constantly.
The slope will tell you how much change of Y to X >.
Depends how much of it you replace . Also how much flooring you remove if you can't get underneath.

The slope is the rise/over run of a line. The equation of a line is usually written in the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. To find the slope, you can take two points on a line, find how much the line goes up (or down) between the two, and divide it by how much the lines moves to the right. Usually the slope is left in the simplest fraction form.
The slope of a line on a coordinate graph represents the steepness or incline of the line. It indicates how much the line rises or falls for each unit of horizontal movement.
