yes, the slope of the line is the tangent of the angle
Yes.
It means that the relationship between the x and y variables is not linear.
slope=rise over run
No slope is undefined i.e. a vertical line slope of 0 is a horizontal line... i believe...
If a line has a slope m then a line perpendicular to it has a slope -1/m ( negative inverse). For example if a line has slope positive 2, its perpendicular has slope -1/2
yes, the slope of the line is the tangent of the angle
A direct relationship if the slope of the line is positive. An inverse relationship if the slope of the line is negative.
The slope of a line is the same thing as the rate of change between two variables in a linear relationship.
Yes.
It means that the relationship between the x and y variables is not linear.
They are negative reciprocals. So if the slope of a line is x, the slope of the perpendicular line is -1/x
A straight line on a graph usually indicates a linear relationship between two variables, in this case, two temperatures. The slope of the line can tell us the rate of change between the two temperatures. If the line has a positive slope, it means the temperatures are positively correlated, while a negative slope indicates a negative correlation.
By definition, if you graph the relationship between two variables and the result is a straight line (of whatever slope) that is a linear relationship. If it is a curve, rather than a straight line, then it is not linear.
The slope of a line represents the rate of change between two variables. A positive slope indicates a direct relationship, where one variable increases as the other increases. A negative slope indicates an inverse relationship, where one variable decreases as the other increases. The steeper the slope, the greater the rate of change between the variables.
A line with slope of zero is horizontal. A line with no slope is vertical because slope is undefined on a vertical line.
Yes, there a relationship between the sign (positive or negative) of the slope of a line and the angle the line makes with the x-axisWhen a line slopes up from left to right, it has a positive slope. This means that a positive change in y is associated with a positive change in x. The steeper the slope the greater the rate of change in y in relation to the change in x.When a line slopes down from left to right, it has a negative slope. This means that a negative change in y is associated with a positive change in x.
