A line doesn't have a negative slope if it's steep or not. Possitive and negative slope is determined by the way it goes up or down. When you look at a line from the left to the right, if it gets higher as you get closer to the right, then it has a positive slope. On the other hand, if you also look at it from left to right and the line goes down as it nears the right side, it has a negative slope. If the line is horizontal, it has a slope of 0. If the line is vertical, it has no slope.

Does Does a steep line have a negative slope?
This is unrelated. A steep line has a LARGE slope. The slope is positive if the line goes up from left to right; negative if it goes down from left to right.
Which of the following are the correct properties of slope?
A.Lines that are equally steep should have the same slope.B.The slope of a steep line should be bigger than the slope of a flat line.D.Lines that go up from left to right should have a positive slope.E.Lines that go down from left to right should have a negative slope.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------B.The slope of a flat line should be close to 0.C.The slope of a flat line is smaller than the slope of a steep line.E.A negative slope means that the line moves down from left to right
Considering the graph of a line with a negative slope what is true?
the line goes down from left to right as the absolute value of the negative slope get bigger, the graph of the line gets steeper as the absolute value of the negative slope gets smaller, the graph of the line gets less steep ( apex )
Slope of a line that starts in quadrant 3 and ends in quadrant 1?
The slope is always positive A negative slope will always pass through quadrant II and IV
What is the slope of a perpendicular line if the slope of a line is -13?
A perpendicular lines slope is always the negative or opposite reciprocal of a lines slope. Therefore, if your slope is -13/1 then the perpendicularity of the other line is 1/13. The 13 would change positive there fore its its already a negative number then change it posiive.
