Yes. Stairs represent slope. In fact, today in math class we were discussing slope and similar products.
In math, the slope of a line represents its steepness. It is the change in y values over the change in the values of x, or rise over run.
As my math teacher would say, the Math gods just picked those random variables to represent these things. There is no specific reason to my knowledge.
y=mx+b is slope-intercept form y - y1 = m(x - x1) is point-slope form Used in algebra based math. On a graph; m is the slope b is the y-intercept x and y represent points
gradient in math refers to the slope of a line
