What is the rise of a line?
Rise of a line is a positive slope.
If the rise and the run are both positive numbers what would the slope of a line be?
Whether both are positive or not, you divide rise / run.
For a negative slope the rise is and the run is positive?
For a negative slope, the rise is negative and the run is positive.
How do you solve for slope?
First, you have to take the equation and put into slope intercept form. y=mx+b B will be your y-intercept and m will be your slope. Slope is rise over run, so if it is negative, your line will be going down from left to right. If the slope is positive, the line will be going up from left to right. Hope I could help :)
Slope of line?
slope of line is the ration of the rise over the run
What is the rise of a line?
Rise of a line is a positive slope.
Define the word slope?
Slope is found by calculating rise over run. It represents the steepness of a line and the line's direction. The higher the absolute value of the slope, the more the line's steepness increases, and vice versa. If the slope is positive, the line is diagonal upwards to the right ( / ). If the slope is negative, the line is diagonal downwards to the right ( \ ). If the slope is zero, the line is horizontal. If it is "undefined", the line is a vertical line.

For a negative slope, the rise is negative and the run is positive.

Which of the following are the correct properties of slope?
A.Lines that are equally steep should have the same slope.B.The slope of a steep line should be bigger than the slope of a flat line.D.Lines that go up from left to right should have a positive slope.E.Lines that go down from left to right should have a negative slope.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------B.The slope of a flat line should be close to 0.C.The slope of a flat line is smaller than the slope of a steep line.E.A negative slope means that the line moves down from left to right
In eighth grade math how do you determine the scope of line as positive negative zero or undefined?
Assuming you mean the slope of a line, not the scope, the slope of a line is determined by its rise over its run. Take 2 points on the line (x1,y1), (x2,y2) and find the slope by plugging it into this equation: (x1-x2)/(y1-y2). If the answer is positive, the slope is positive, if the answer is negative, the slope is negative, if the answer is zero, the slope is zero, and if the answer is undefined (i.e. dividing by zero), your slope is undeifined.
Slope of line?
slope of line is the ration of the rise over the run
What is a positive and negative value for M in the formula y equals Mx plus B?
The formula y=Mx + B is the slope intercept equation of a line. If you where to graph this on a 2 dimensional graph with x and y axes the number represented by M would be the slope of the line. A positive value of M would mean a positive slope and the line will rise as one views it from left to right. A negative value of M would indicate a negative slope and the line will descend as one views it from left to right. A value of zero for M would indicate a horizontal line.
How do you find equations of a line given a point and line?
You need to determine another point along the line or determine the slope of the line given the graph.First, count the "rise" and "run" units along the graphs. To count the "rise" units, count the number of units it takes for the line to rise up. To count the "run" units, count the number of units it takes for the line to run left/right.Remember:If you are running up along the line, then you are counting positive units for the "rise".If you are running left/right along the line, then you are counting negative/positive units for the "run".Use this simplified form:m = slope form = rise / runThen, use the point-slope form to determine the equation of a line.y - y0 = m(x - x0)
How can you tell from a scatter plot wheather two variables have a positive correlation a negative correlation or no correlation?
Positive correlation = the slope of the scattered dots will rise from left to right (positive slope) Negative correlation = the slope of the scattered dots will fall from left to right (negative slope) No correlation = no real visible slope, the dots are too scattered to tell.
What is slope and why is the letter m used to represent slope in formulas?
The slope of a graph is a measure of the rate at which it rises. It is measured as the "rise"/"run" which is the ratio of the increase in height for each unit move in the horizontal direction. The slope of a line going from bottom left to top right is positive. "M" stood for the Modulus of slope.
