Can you explain this? What is negative or positive slope?Stuart Kovinsky wrote:If the slope is negative, then the line goes from the top left to the bottom right.
The slope of a line is how "slanted" it is. Slope is defined as rise/run or (change in y)/(change in x) = (Y2 - Y1)/(X2 - X1). Slope measures how quickly the line changes vertically (the y-value) compared to how quickly it changes horizontally (the x-value).Bronson wrote:Can you explain this?
