What else can I help you with?
Why isn't 1 always my slope?
That's because lines, or curves, can have different slopes.
What is the slope of a horizontial line?
The slope would be zero.In contrast, the slope of a vertical line would be infinite.
What would a graph that has a negative slope show?
It would have a downhill slope from left to right
What does experimental data mean?
"Experimental data" is data obtained from measurements made during an experiment; this is the working out of "expected" or "theoretical" data which would be calculated from ideal equations. Experimental and theoretical data may not match exactly due to errors in measurement (or other reasons). Examples: * Investigating the effect of acceleration due to gravity down a slope. 1) Set up a slope; 2) Put a "car" at the top of the slope with a ticker tape attached behind it going through a stylus that vibrates up and down ( thus marking the tape) at a constant frequency. 3) Letting the car run down the slope pulling the tape through the stylus; 4) Measure the distance between successive marks on the tape. These measurements are the experimental data. They can be made for different slopes which would give different measurements. * Investigating the effect of different weights on a spring 1) Hang a spring with a weight carrier from a stand 2) Measure the distance from the attachment of the spring to the bottom of the weight carrier 3) Add various (different) weights to the carrier and measure the distances. These measurements are the experimental data - in this case it is paired data as the distance relates to a given weight; here different springs would lead to different measurements.
Does a negative line have a different slope than a positive one?
Yes. If the fraction is the same, the negative slope would have at least one negative number, while the positive would have both positive numbers. I'm pretty sure. :)
Is two distinct lines with same x intercept parallel?
No. In order to be parallel, two lines would have to have the same slope, and different intercepts.Why? Two lines with different slopes, but the same intercepts would result in two intersecting lines. Two lines with the same slope, and the same intercept would result in the same line. Two lines with the same slope, and different intercepts would be parallel.

The slope would be zero.In contrast, the slope of a vertical line would be infinite.
Two lines with the same slope and different y-intercepts are perpendicular?
No because two lines with the same slope but with different y intercepts are parallel lines. Perpendicular lines meet each other at right angles.
What would you call different types of fish?
Different names.
What word describes the slope of the line passing through points (5 12) and (5 -13)?
It would be a undefined slope.There are four types of slope:Postive slope (when lines go uphill from left to right)Negative slope (when lines go downhill from left to right)Zero slope (when lines are horizontal)Undefined slope (when lines are vertical)
If you have a 3to1 slope what percentage slope would that be?
50%
What would a graph that has a negative slope show?
It would have a downhill slope from left to right

Is 5x - 3 a slope of 0?
this would be a slope of 5
A line that has a different slope at each point is a slope or curve?
Any function that can't be drawn as a straight line will have a different slope at consecutive point. If it has to have a different slope at every point, the function constantly increasing or decreasing with a positive or negative concavity everywhere. Function of the form y=a^x and y=log(x) fit this description perfectly. Functions of the odd roots of x would also display similar behavior.
