the rate of change is related to the slope; the higher the slope, the higher the rate. If the line is vertical, that is infinite slope or infinite rate of change which is not possible
the slope
Slope is the change in y (vertical dimension) with the change in x (horizontal dimension). On a Cartesian coordinate system, the slope is equal to infinity for change in x = 0, or a vertical line.
Slope.
Gradient (on a graph as I assume you mean), or the differential of the line's equation (dy/dx which means "the difference in y with respect to a difference in x").
Rate of change of the "vertical" variable in relation to the "horizontal" variable.

The Slope
The Slope
A horizontal line has a slope of zero. For a vertical line, the slope is not defined (change of y / change of x would result in a division by zero).A horizontal line has a slope of zero. For a vertical line, the slope is not defined (change of y / change of x would result in a division by zero).A horizontal line has a slope of zero. For a vertical line, the slope is not defined (change of y / change of x would result in a division by zero).A horizontal line has a slope of zero. For a vertical line, the slope is not defined (change of y / change of x would result in a division by zero).
the rate of change is related to the slope; the higher the slope, the higher the rate. If the line is vertical, that is infinite slope or infinite rate of change which is not possible
the slope
The slope is the ratio of rise over the run. The rise is the change in the vertical distance.The run is the change in the horizontal distance.So the slope is the ratio of two changes, horizontal divided by vertical.
Slope is the change in y (vertical dimension) with the change in x (horizontal dimension). On a Cartesian coordinate system, the slope is equal to infinity for change in x = 0, or a vertical line.
the term for the ratio of vertical change over horizontal change is slope
