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 rate of change is the same as the slope.
The instantaneous rate change of the variable y with respect to x must be the slope of the line at the point represented by that instant. However, the rate of change of x, with respect to y will be different [it will be the x/y slope, not the y/x slope]. It will be the reciprocal of the slope of the line. Also, if you have a time-distance graph the slope is the rate of chage of distance, ie speed. But, there is also the rate of change of speed - the acceleration - which is not DIRECTLY related to the slope. It is the rate at which the slope changes! So the answer, in normal circumstances, is no: they are the same. But you can define situations where they can be different.
the steepness of the line is the slope of the line which is the rate of change; the steeper the slope, the faster the rate of change
The rate of change
It does not relate to it
Yes, Rate of change is slope
Depends. Slope of tangent = instantaneous rate of change. Slope of secant = average rate of change.
slope of the hill
Slope is blah. Rate of change is blah.
In general, they don't.

slope of a line
The instantaneous rate change of the variable y with respect to x must be the slope of the line at the point represented by that instant. However, the rate of change of x, with respect to y will be different [it will be the x/y slope, not the y/x slope]. It will be the reciprocal of the slope of the line.

The slope of an acceleration-time graph represents the rate of change of acceleration over time. A steeper slope indicates a faster rate of acceleration, while a less steep slope indicates a slower rate of acceleration.
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.
