What is the slope of the line represented by each function what is the y-intercept for each function?
Boy00053
In the slope-intercept form you use the slope of the line and the y-intercept to the origin has a y-intersect of zero, b = 0, and represents a direct variation. All functions that can be written on the form f(x) = mx + b belong to the family of linear function.

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.
What is the slope of a curve line?
The slope of a curved line changes as you go along the curve and so you may have a different slope at each point. Any any particular point, the slope of the curve is the slope of the straight line which is tangent to the curve at that point. If you know differential calculus, the slope of a curved line at a point is the value of the first derivative of the equation of the curve at that point. (Actually, even if you don't know differential calculus, the slope is still the value of the function's first derivative at that point.)
What is the formula for slope of a perpendicular line?
if line's A and B are perpendicular to each other, the slope of A = -1/(the slope of B)
Do perpendicular lines have the same exact slope?
No, parallel lines have exactly same slope Perpendicular line have a slope that is negative reciprocal of each other that is if m = slope of line then slope of perpendicular line is -1/m
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.
How do contour lines show elevation and slope and relief?
The same as Meteorologic Wind maps, the closer the lines of Gradients are spaced to each other, the greater are the represented Gradients, be they wind or slope or elevation.

What is the relationship among proportional relationships lines rates of change and slope?
For each of the following relationships, graph the proportional relationship between the two quantities, write the equation representing the relationship, and describe how the unit rate, or slope is represented on the graph.
What is the slope of the line given y equals 2 over 17x?
The function y = 2/17x has a slope = -2/17x2 so that for each value of x (other than zero) it has a different slope. Near x = zero its slope approaches + or - infinity, while for large x it approaches zero.
How are functions equation slopes and graphs related?
There are some relationships but not all relationships are always true. Any function can be represented by an equation. But all equations are not functions. For example, y = sqrt(x) is the equation of the square root relationship which can be graphed as a parabola on its side, but it is not a function. It has slopes at each point. Some functions can be plotted as graphs but not all. A function such as f(x) = 1 when x is rational, and f(x) = 0 when x is irrational has no slope and cannot be plotted as a graph. A graph of a vertical line is not a function.

What is the difference between differentiation and integration?
Differentiation involves determination of the slope, i.e. the derivative, of a function. The slope of a function at a point is a straight line that is tangent to that function at that point, and is the line defined by the limit of two points on the original curve, one of those two points being the point in question, as their distance between each other becomes zero. There are several things you can do with derivatives, not the least of which is aid in plotting functions and finding various minima and maxima. Integration involves determination of the inverse-slope, i.e. the integral, of a function. The integral of a function is another function whose derivative is the first function. There are several things you can do with integrals, not the least of which is finding the area or volume under or in a curve or shape.
What are derivatives and why do derivatives exist?
The derivative of a function is another function that represents the slope of the function at each of the points in the original function's domain. For instance, given the function f(x) = x2, the derivative is f'(x) = 2x. This says that the slope of the original function f(x) = x2 is 2x at every x. This is very useful when you want to graph the function, because you only need a few data points, and then you can quickly sketch the shape of the curve when you know the slope. Later on, you are going to learn about anti-derivatives, and you are going to call them integrals, and you are going to learn the vast power of this thing we call calculus in terms of finding the area under a curve, but let's take it one step at a time.
