No. The distance of a line on a graph will not affect how steep it is. Distance does not affect slope.

What does a steep straight line sloping upwards on a distance time graph indicate?

It means that as time goes on, the distance increases quickly.


What motion does a steep slope on a distance time graph show?

Steep slope on a distance/time graph indicates high speed.


What does a steep line on a distance time graph mean?

With distance on the x axis and time on the y axis a steep line would indicate a short distance traveled over a long period of time, depending on the scale of the graph.


What does a steep downward slope mean on a distance time graph?

A steep downward slope on a distance-time graph indicates a fast decrease in distance traveled over time. This could suggest that the object is moving rapidly in the opposite direction or decelerating quickly.


The slope of the distance-time graph gives the?

The slope of a distance-time graph gives the speed or velocity of the object. If the slope is steep, it indicates a higher speed, while a less steep slope indicates a slower speed. The slope is calculated by dividing the change in distance by the change in time.


What does changing the a variable do to the graph of a quadratic?

I assume this question refers to the coefficient of the squared term in a quadratic and not a variable (as stated in the question). That is, it refers to the a in ax2 + bx + c where x is the variable.When a is a very large positive number, the graph is a very narrow or steep-sided cup shape. As a become smaller, the graph gets wider until, when a equals zero (and the equation is no longer a quadratic) the graph is a horizontal line. Then as a becomes negative, the graph becomes cap shaped. As the magnitude of a increases, the sides of the graph become steeper.


What does it mean when there is a steep line on a line graph when x axis is time and y axis is distance?

It means you are going very fast

How would you describe the slope of a graph showing fast speed?

If it is distance from a point versus time, with distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis, it would show a steep vertical climb on the graph. The steeper vertical change, the faster, but never completely vertical. Large "rise" (distance) over short "run" (time). With 0 acceleration, the graph is a straight line.


How would you describe the slope of the graph showing slow speed?

Im guessing that this is a distance over time graph. if so, the gradient of the line of best fit would have a low value. (not be very steep)


A car distance time graph is a straight line with a steep slope. How would you describe the car's speed?

If the slope is 'uphill' then the car is going faster


What does a steep line in a graph look like?

It looks for all the world exactly as if it were a steep line.
