What Does Positive Slope Mean?

The slope of the land is an important feature when considering the erosion that will occur. In this resource, which is part of a rain garden unit, learners calculate the slope of the proposed garden site. Even if you are not planning a...

What does slope have to do with lines? Pupils work with lines and determine the slope of the lines informally and with the slope formula. Groups use their knowledge to calculate the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines. They also...

Introduce slope, slope, and more slope, with this comprehensive video about....slope! Start with the slope formula and transition to counting the slope from a line on a coordinate plane. Your mathematicians will be able to see the...

Rise and run to find slope. Given a graph of a line, the presentation shows how to find the slope by determining the rise and the run. The resource, part of an extensive geometry playlist, reveals the four basic slopes of lines.

How can two negative values create a positive slope? Rise over run, a negative divided by a negative. Watch the instructor explain just how that works.

Rise over run? The instructor explains two ways that a slope can be negative. It's not as complicated as you may think. Follow along on this lesson and see for yourself.

Investigate the different types of slope using graphs and ordered pairs. Scholars use the slope formula to determine the slope of a line between two points. Includes examples with a slope of zero and with no slope. The lesson follows a...

Do you know the formula for slope? Yes, rise over run. Then all you have to do is plug in the given values and solve for the slope of the ramp.

The graph of a line with an undefined slope is a vertical line. Why is it undefined? It has something to do with the value of the x-coordinate. The x-coordinate determines the run of the slope. So what if the run is zero? The instructor...

Evaluate the steepness of lines, also known as the slope, by watching this video. A tutor explains what the slope of a line is and compares two different lines to demonstrate slope. A practical introductory video for classes that are...
