In mathematics, the slope represents the rate of change of a line on a graph, indicating how much the dependent variable (usually (y)) changes for a unit change in the independent variable (usually (x)). It is calculated as the rise (change in (y)) over the run (change in (x)). A positive slope indicates that as (x) increases, (y) also increases, while a negative slope indicates that (y) decreases as (x) increases. The slope is a fundamental concept in linear equations and helps to describe the relationship between variables.
