∙ 14y agoIt is called the slope of a line.
No, rise is the vertical change. Run is the horizontal change.
note: that one and two on the y's ans x's and doesnt mean to the 2nd or 1st powery2-y1_______ x2-x1
the term for the ratio of vertical change over horizontal change is slope
The Slope
The Slope
vertical change to the horizontal change between any two points on the line. study island.
the slope
It is the derivative of the vertical change relative to the horizontal change - if the derivative exists. So, with the typical x-y graph, it would be dy/dx. If the graph is a straight line, then it is the change in the vertical positions between any two points divided by the change in the horizontal positions between the same two points (in the same order).
