Objective SWBAT determine the slope of a line and recognize constant and variable rates of change
Section 5.3 “Slope and Rates of Change” The SLOPE of a line is a measure of its steepness. It is the ratio of the rise compared to the run. Slope = rise = vertical change run horizontal change run horizontal change
Types of Slope y x run rise “Positive slope” y x run rise “Negative slope” The line rises from left to right. The line falls from left to right.
Identifying slope of a line Tell whether the slope is positive or negative. Then find the slope. Slope = rise run run = =
Identifying slope of a line Tell whether the slope is positive or negative. Then find the slope. Slope = rise run run = =
y-axis x-axis Using Slope and a Point to Graph a Line Use the given slope and point to graph the line. slope point Slope of -2 means: -2 means: Slope of -2 means: -2 means: OR
y-axis x-axis Slope of 2/3 means: 2/3 means: Slope of 2/3 means: 2/3 means: OR slope point Using Slope and a Point to Graph a Line Use the given slope and point to graph the line.
y-axis x-axis Using Slope and a Point to Graph a Line Use the given slope and point to graph the line. slope point Slope of -3/4 means: -3/4 means: Slope of -3/4 means: -3/4 means: OR
Rates of Change the ratio of two quantities. Constant rate of change -describes changes of the same amount during equal intervals. The graph is a LINE. Variable rate of change -describes changes of a different amount during equal intervals. The graph is a NOT a line.
Identifying Rates of Change Tell whether each graph shows a constant rate of change or a variable rate of change. If the graph shows a constant rate of change describe it. Variable Constant; Positive slope of 3. Variable Constant; Positive slope of 20mph.
