Why use slopes?
The slope of a graph provides general information about a graph. It tells you how much the y value of the graph increases (or decreases, if the slope is negative) for a given increase in x value. if you look at the general equation of a graph y = a x + b the value "a" represents the slope and the "b" value represents the value of y when x = 0. When the graph is not a straight line, the discussion gets more complicated, however the slope still describes changes in the value of the graph (you have to use calculus for this situation.)
What represents acceleration on a graph?
The answer depends on the variables in the graph! In a graph of age against mass there is nothing that represents acceleration.
What is the slope of the following equation y equals 15 x plus 4?
The slope of the line that represents the graph of that equation is 15.
What characteristic of a graph represents the rate of change?
The slope of a graph.
