Vivihow much y changes in x; ie: how many cup noodles you eat per year, 2 years, 1.12345 years; in which years is the x, cup noodles eaten is y, and slope is m, or the answer.
It depends on what the graph represents. The slope is "rise over run", so change in the vertical units over change in the horizontal units.
So, if your graph was distance traveled (in miles) over time (in hours), the slope would be change in miles over change in hours, or "miles per hour"---in other words, your velocity.

Is the steepness of a line on a motion graph is called a slope?
"Slope" is the steepness of the line on any graph.
What is y equals 3x - 14?

How do you tell whether a graph shows a constant or variable rate of change?
The slope of each point on the line on the graph is the rate of change at that point. If the graph is a straight line, then its slope is constant. If the graph is a curved line, then its slope changes.
What is a slope on a graph?
The line on the graph that shows what the data is saying.
What is slope and why is the letter m used to represent slope in formulas?
The slope of a graph is a measure of the rate at which it rises. It is measured as the "rise"/"run" which is the ratio of the increase in height for each unit move in the horizontal direction. The slope of a line going from bottom left to top right is positive. "M" stood for the Modulus of slope.
