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).
By using the equation of a straight line y = mx+b whereas m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept
A line whose slope is not constant or not defined. A curved line, a discontinuous line, a vertical line are some examples.
By using the straight line equation of y = mx+c whereas m is the slope and c is the y intercept

No. A linear graph has the same slope anywhere.
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.

A protractor.
Points: )1, 1) and (3, 3) Slope: 1
take two ordered pairs. then do difference of y's divided by difference of x's and that is your slope
1
If the slope of a line is m then the slope of an altitude to that line is -1/m.
