A low rate of change.
The slope of a graph.
The slope increases.
Take a tangent at the point where you want the slope. Then the slope of the graph at that point is the slope of the tangent, which is found by taking another point on the tangent and then taking the change in y between the two points and divid it by the change in x.
the rate of change on the line.
A low rate of change.

On a graph, the slope does tell you the rate of change of y with respect to x. If the slope is steep, that means that there is a high rate of change of y with respect to x. If the slope is shallow, then y is not changing that rapidly with respect to x.
A sudden change in slope or discontinuity in the graph would indicate a phase change taking place. This can be seen as a sharp point or step-like feature in the graph.

A graph with two flat sections joined by a slope represents a phase change. The flat sections indicate a constant temperature during a phase change, such as when ice is melting or water is boiling. The slope represents a temperature increase or decrease during the transition between phases. In a graph, you would mark the flat section for ice melting and boiling water where the temperature remains constant.
A change in the slope of a location-time graph of an object indicates a change in the radial component of its speed.
The slope of a graph.
The slope of each point on the line on the graph is the rate of change at that point. If the graph is a straight line, then its slope is constant. If the graph is a curved line, then its slope changes.
The slope increases.
Rate of change is essentially the same as the slope of a graph, that is change in y divided by change in x. If the graph is a straight-line, the slope can be easily calculated with the formula:Vertical change ÷ horizontal change = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Velocity can be identified in a position-time graph through the slope of the curve at any given point. The slope represents the velocity at that particular moment in time. A steeper slope indicates a higher velocity, while a shallow slope indicates a lower velocity.
