Less 5-1 Slope
Math Vocabulary Slope: The diagonal “slope” of a line on a graph that runs through given points
Graphing Slope When graphing slope… we need to remember… SLOPE (m) = rise = up/down run right *Changing any whole # fraction = EASIER to graph i.e. 2 = 2 5 = 5 1 1
Graphing a line through a given point: (1,2) ; slope = -3/2 (2, -3) ; slope = 5/4
Graphing a line through a given point: (-2,2) ; slope = 0 (-4, -3) ; slope = undefined
Practice… Graph a line through the given point, with the given slope: a) (4, 2) ; slope -3 b) (-3, -4); slope = ¼ c) (-1, 5) ; slope = 0
