SLOPES are lines that are not in horizontal position. It has an inclined angle. A SLOPE OF A LINE refers to its steepness and direction. Here's an example...
The formula for SLOPE is:
whereas:
RISE - the difference of Ys
RUN - the difference of Xs
Here is problem #1 and it's solution
The NOTATION of the slope is m
remember our previous topic about slope intercept form?
if m = 0 that means that the slope is a horizontal line
if m > 0 that means that the line is diagonal and it rises to the right
if m is less than zerovalue and it goes downward to the right
and if m is undefined or when the fraction has a zero(0) as the denominator, that means that the line is vertical.
next example...
One more example and solution
we were asked to do ex. 7 and 8 (#5-#7)
whew!! I'm done at last!! haha.. well.. hope i did this ryt... did i?
by the way.. sorry for the graphics.. if it doesn't fit.. haha.. if i would reduce its size,, some of the writings would be very small and you wouldn't be able to read it.. so that's it..so sleepy now..
