Slope Grade 7 Math AF 3.3
California Standards AF3.3 Graph linear functions, noting that the vertical change (change in y-value) per unit of horizontal change (change in x-value) is always the same and know that the ratio (“rise over run”) is called the slope of a graph. Slope
The slope of a line can be defined as positive, negative, no slope, or undefined. Positive Slope Negative Slope
The slope of a line can be defined as positive, negative, no slope, or undefined. No Slope Undefined Slope
Identify the type of slope of the line if any. No Slope Negative Slope
Identify the type of slope of the line if any. Positive Slope Undefined Slope
Slope m = The “rise” represents a vertical change on the graph. In other words, the top number tells you how far to move up or down. Rise is vertical change:
Slope m = The “run” represents a horizontal change on the graph. In other words, the bottom number tells you how far to move “across or back”. Run is horizontal change:
Slope m = If slope m = I will move “up” 2 spaces and across 3 spaces This line has a positive slope.
Remember, there are three ways to write a “negative rational number”, negative fraction.
With this fraction, the top number is negative. Since the top represents the “rise”, a negative rise would indicate moving “down”.
Slope m = If slope m = I will move “down” 3 spaces and across 4 spaces This line has a negative slope.
With this fraction, the bottom number is negative. Since the bottom represents the “run”, a negative run would indicate moving “across forward or across back”.
Slope m = If slope m = I will move “up” 3 spaces and “back” 4 spaces This line has a negative slope.
