p86 3-11, 18-23, 25,26, 41 Chapter 2.2 Slope & Rate-of-Change
Slope The ratio of the vertical change of a line to the horizontal change. Rise over run. Run Rise
Types of Slopes Positive Slope Negative Slope
HOY VUX • H - horizontal • O - M=0 • Y - Y=(some number) • V - Vertical • U - M=Undefined • X - X=(some number)
HOY VUX Zero Slope Undefined Slope
Parallel & Perpendicular • Parallel – Lines that never cross. Have the same slopes • Perpendicular – Lines intersect at one point. Slopes are negative reciprocals of each other.
examples • Parallel
examples • Perpendicular
Rate-of-Change • Rate-of-Change – To calculate a rate of change just find the slope of the values. • Units – Expressed as the ratio of the units of the y-value over the units of the x-value.
Example If the population of a city changed from 5,000 people in 1990 to 3,000 people in 2000 what was the rate-of-population change for the city?
