In a graph, the rise of a line usually represents an increase of some quantity. What that quantity is must be read off the graph's axes.

The vertical change of a line?
The vertical change is called the rise.
Is the constant rate of change a line called the rise of the line?
No.No.No.No.
Define slope of a line?
Rise/Run (The rise of the slope divided by the run of the slope.)
What is the ratio of the vertical change (rise) to the horizontal chnage (run) of a nonvertical line?
It is called the slope of a line.
What is the slope and y-intercepect of a line?
The slope of a line is its "rise over run", or the ratio of its change in y to its change in x. The y intercept is a point where a line intersects the y axis.
What is the slant of a line in a graph?
The slope. Or the gradient, on a straight line graph, it is represented by m in the equation y=mx + c. It can also be calculated by the rise (change in y) ÷ run (change in x)
How can slope be represented?
change in y/ change in x, rise over run
What is the change in rise divided by the change in run?
Rise/run is the slope of a line.
The vertical change of a line?
The vertical change is called the rise.
Rise is the horizontal change between any two points on a line?
No, rise is the vertical change. Run is the horizontal change.
Is the constant rate of change a line called the rise of the line?
No.No.No.No.
The steepness of a line on a graph is called the?
The "steepness" of a line is called the slope. The slope represents the the amount of change in the y-direction of the line per every change in the x-direction. This is represented mathematically by slope = Δy/Δx Δy is also called the "rise" and Δx is also called the "run". The steepness can also be called the gradient, which is represented by an angle. The gradient can be calculated from the slope by using the formula gradient = tan(slope).
Is the horizontal change between two points on the line?
run apex dawgg!!
Define slope of a line?
Rise/Run (The rise of the slope divided by the run of the slope.)
What is the line called on a line graph that is the ratio of the change in the y-variable to the corresponding change in the x-variable?
The rise and the run.
What do the terms rise and run have to do with slope?
"The ratio of the vertical change to the horizontal change between two points on a line. It measures the steepness of a line." Rise = vertical change Run = horizontal change The terms are commonly used as "rise over run" because the equation for calculating the slope(m) of a line is: m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) the y points being the difference in rise and the x points being the difference in run m = rise / run
What is the ratio of the vertical change (rise) to the horizontal chnage (run) of a nonvertical line?
It is called the slope of a line.
