Which statement best describes the slope of this line?

It is negative because as the x-values decrease, the y-values increase.

It is positive because as the x-values increase, the y-values increase.

It is negative because the graph contains x-values and y-values.

It is positive because the graph has a positive y-intercept.

HINT

Oh no!

As the x-values decrease, the y-values also decrease.

Try again

Strike!

Well done!

NEXT QUESTION

Oh no!

Both negative and positive graphs always contain x-values and y-values.

Try again

Oh no!

The point where the line crosses the y-axis does not determine if the slope is positive or negative. Look at the slant of the line to see if the x-values and y-values are both increasing or decreasing together.

Which equation has the same y-intercept as the line in the graph, and a slope that is the opposite of the slope in the graph?

HINT

Strike!

Well done!

NEXT QUESTION

Oh no!

The line on the graph has a negative slope. Therefore, an equation with a slope of opposite sign should have a positive coefficient in front of x.

Try again

Oh no!

The line crosses the y-axis at −3, so to have the same y-intercept, the equation must end in −3.

Try again

Oh no!

The slope of the graphed line is . To find the opposite, switch the sign to positive.

What is the slope of this line?

−2

zero

undefined

HINT

Oh no!

The y-intercept of this line is 2. What is the slope?

Try again

Oh no!

A negative slope would be slanting down from left to right.

Try again

Strike!

Well done!

NEXT QUESTION

Oh no!

A vertical line has a slope that is undefined. What is the slope of a horizontal line? Remember: A positive slope slants up. A negative slope slants down. How much slant does a flat line have?

What is the slope of this line?

−3

zero

undefined

HINT

Oh no!

A positive slope would be slanting up from left to right.

Try again

Oh no!

The x-intercept is −3. What is the slope?

Try again

Oh no!

A horizontal line has a slope of zero. What is the slope of a vertical line?

Try again

Strike!

Well done!

What is the equation of this line?

y = 2

y = −2

x = 2

x = −2

HINT

Oh no!

The y-intercept is (0, 2). Some other points on this line are (5, 2) and (−3, 2). Notice that every y-value of every point on this line is 2.

Try again

Oh no!

The equation of this line cannot be x = 2 because there are points on the line such as (−4, 2) and (3, 2) where the x-values are not 2. Think About It: What is the y-value of every point on the line?

Try again

Oh no!

The line crosses the y-axis at 2.

Try again

Strike!

Well done!

NEXT QUESTION

What is the equation of this line?

y = 3

y = −3

x = 3

x = −3

HINT

Oh no!

The line crosses the x-axis at −3.

Try again

Oh no!

−3

The equation of this line cannot be y = −3 because there are points on the line such as (−3, 2) and (−3, −5) where the y-values are not −3.

Think About It: What is the x-value of every point on the line?

Try again

Oh no!

The x-intercept is (−3, 0). Some other points on this line are (−3, 6) and (−3, 2). Notice that the x-value of every point on this line is −3.

Here's a hint!

Create a list of points that are on this line. What do you notice?

Here's a hint!

Look at the graph from left to right, like you read a book. Is the line going up (positive) or down (negative)?

Here's a hint!

Create a list of points that are on this line. What do you notice?

Here's a hint!

A positive slope slants up from left to right. A negative slope slants down from left to right. A flat line is the transition between up and down. What number is between the positives and negatives?

Here's a hint!

To find the opposite, just flip the sign!

Here's a hint!

Slope is the slant of a line. Would you describe this line as slanted?
