This depends on what the graph represents. If it is a graph of velocity on the vertical and time on the horizontal, then if acceleration is at a constant rate, the graph will be a straight line with positive slope (pointing 'up'). If acceleration stops, then the graph will be a horizontal line (zero acceleration or deceleration). If it is deceleration (negative acceleration), then the graph will have negative slope (pointing down).

∙ 2011-01-22 16:46:30acceleration is the slope of the v t graph... so the acceleration is constant and negative. In other words, the object is slowing down at a constant rate.
a correlation on a graph is when the line of best fit is positive, negative or none.
to graph not only positive numbers, but negative ones as well
The trend of a graph is the slope of any line on the graph that indicated a positive or growth factor and/or a negative or decaying factor. If the slope goes negative, the graph's line will go down thus indicating decay. If the slope becomes positive, the graph's line will go up thus indicating growth.
I believe you are asking how to identify a positive or negative correlation between two variables, for which you have data. I'll call these variables x and y. Of course, you can always calculate the correlation coefficient, but you can see the correlation from a graph. An x-y graph that shows a positive trend (slope positive) indicates a positive correlation. An x-y graph that shows a negative trend (slope negative) indicates a negative correlation.
The answer depends on whether the graph is that of speed v time or distance v time.
A period of constant positive acceleration;a second period of zero acceleration; a third period of constant negative acceleration.
A negative slope, called 'a negative gradient' by the intelligent, on a Velocity-Time Graph shows the deceleration of the object. This negative gradient is the positive deceleration and the negative acceleration.
Speed can be shown on a graph of position versus time, and acceleration can be shown on a graph of speed versus time.
A motion described as a changing, positive velocity results in a sloped line when plotted as a velocity-time graph. If the acceleration is zero, then the slope is zero (i.e., a horizontal line). If the acceleration is positive, then the slope is positive (i.e., an upward sloping line). If the acceleration is negative, then the slope is negative (i.e., a downward sloping line).
Acceleration is negative when the object is moving in the opposite direction. on a graph the line would be in the negative quadrant.
Acceleration is negative.
Deceleration (negative acceleration) is represented by a negative slope on a velocity-time graph.
acceleration is the slope of the v t graph... so the acceleration is constant and negative. In other words, the object is slowing down at a constant rate.

If acceleration is negative the graph looks like a upside U and decreases in value as time continues If acceleration is constant the graph is a straight line (linear) at 0 or whatever the velocity is
