The slope of the line (on a linear equation) is rise over run. Meaning how far apart vertically (up and down) two points on the graph are, divided by how many units apart they are horizontally (left to right).

Does in linear graphs the slope of the line change with the x-coordinate?

No. A linear graph has the same slope anywhere.


Does in linear graphs the slope of the line change with the x coordinate?

In a linear graph the slope is the same everywhere, assuming vertical line graphs are not allowed. Depending on context, a vertical line (say x = 3) is not always allowed. If the graph is a vertical line then the slope is infinite at the single value of x. (That would be 3 in the example above.) The slope would then be undefined elsewhere.

What are graphs that compare distance and time?

Graphs that compare distance and time are typically referred to as distance-time graphs. In these graphs, the x-axis represents time, while the y-axis represents distance traveled. The slope of the line indicates the speed of the object; a steeper slope signifies a higher speed, while a flat line indicates that the object is stationary. These graphs are useful for visualizing motion and understanding how distance changes over time.
