This document discusses the concept of slope of a line in mathematics. It defines slope as the ratio of vertical to horizontal change and explains how to calculate slope given two points on a line. It discusses positive, negative and zero slopes and how they relate to the tilt of the line. The document also explains how to graph linear equations in y=mx+b form by looking at the slope (m) and y-intercept (b). It provides examples of finding the slope and y-intercept of linear equations.

SLOPE OF A LINE NAME-ANUJ JHA CLASS-11TH –A ROOL NO-06 MATHEMATICS AND ART ARE NOW JOINED.. 4.3: GRAPHING Y=MX+B Objectives: • Find the slope of a line given the coordinates of two points on the line
• Graph equations that are written in y = mx + b form. Concept: Determining Slope cont. . .
Positive Negative slope, slope, + work – work
Zero slope is zero fun! NO slope.
Oh No!!!!
Slope Mountain Ski Resort WHAT DOES THE LINE LOOK LIKE WHEN… You have positive slope?
• You have negative slope?
• You have zero slope?
• You have NO slope?

The change in y over the change in x
CONCEPT: THE GRAPH OF Y = MX +B DO NOT WRITE THIS DOWN!! JUST WATCH. Consider the graph of y = x - 2 5 4 y • Compare to the graph of y = ½x - 2 3 Notice with the smaller slope, 2 1 the line becomes flatter. x -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 • Now compare to the graph -2 -3 of y=2x-2 -4 Notice with the larger slope, the -5 line becomes steaper. CONCEPT: THE GRAPH OF Y = MX +B CONT. DO NOT WRITE THIS DOWN!!! JUST WATCH. Consider the graph of y = x - 2 When x is positive the graph goes up-hill from left to right. 5 y 4 3 2 • Compare to the graph 1
of y = -x – 2. x -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 What do you think will -2 happen? -3 -4 When x is negative the graph -5 goes down-hill from left to right. CONCEPT: DETERMINING SLOPE CONT. . . 1. First pick two points on the line The points need to be where the lines cross so they are integers Rise = –2
2. Then find the rise Run = 3
and run
3. Determine if the rise 2
slope of the line is slope positive or negative run 3 CONCEPT: DETERMINING SLOPE CONT. . . 1. First pick two points on the line The points need to be where the lines cross so they are integers Rise = 10 2. Then find the rise and run
3. Determine if the Run = 2
slope of the line is positive or negative rise 10 slope 5 run 2 CONCEPT: DETERMINING SLOPE CONT. . . Special Lines: Horizontal Lines
