Learn to determine the slope of a line and to recognize constant and variable rates of change.
Vocabulary slope rate of change
The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness and is the ratio of rise to run: y Run rise Rise slope = x run If a line rises from left to right, its slope is positive. If a line falls from left to right, its slope negative.
Additional Example 1A: Identifying the Slope of the Line Tell whether the slope is positive or negative. Then find the slope. The line rises from left to right. The slope is positive.
3 3 rise run slope = = = 1 Additional Example 1A Continued Tell whether the slope is positive or negative. Then find the slope. 3 3 The rise is 3. The run is 3.
y 2 x 0 –2 2 –2 Additional Example 1B: Identifying the Slope of the Line Tell whether the slope is positive or negative. Then find the slope. The line falls from right to left. The slope is negative.
y 2 x 0 –2 2 –2 rise run 2 -3 slope = = Additional Example 1B Continued Tell whether the slope is positive or negative. Then find the slope. -3 2 The rise is 2. The run is -3.
Check It Out: Example 1A Tell whether the slope is positive or negative. Then find the slope. The line does not point upward or downward so it is not positive or negative.
M(1, –1) N(3, –1) 0 2 rise run slope = = = 0 Check It Out: Example 1A Continued Tell whether the slope is positive or negative. Then find the slope. 2 The rise is 0. The run is 2.
8 –2 rise run slope = = = –4 Check It Out: Example 1B Tell whether the slope is positive or negative. Then find the slope. The line falls from left to right. The slope is negative. (–2, 4) –2 8 The rise is 8. The run is –2. (0, –4)
You can graph a line if you know its slope and one of its points.
rise run 2 -1 -2 1 = or Additional Example 2A: Using Slope and a Point to Graph a Line 21 Use the slope and the point (1, –1) to graph the line. y 4 2 From point (1, 1) move 2 units down and 1 unit right, or move 2 units up and 1 unit left. Mark the point where you end up, and draw a line through the two points. ● x 0 –4 –2 2 4 –2 ● –4
Remember! You can write an integer as a fraction by putting the integer in the numerator of the fraction and a 1 in the denominator.
rise run 1 2 = Additional Example 2B: Using Slope and a Point to Graph a Line 12 Use the slope and the point (–1, –1) to graph the line. y 4 2 From point (–1, –1) move 1 unit up and 2 units right. Mark the point where you end up, and draw a line through the two points. x ● 0 –4 –2 2 4 –2 –4

Mark the point where you end up, and draw a line through the two points. x 0 –4 –2 2 4 ● –2 –4
rise run 1 4 = Check It Out: Example 2B 14 Use the slope and the point (–2, 0) to graph the line. y 4 2 From point (–2, 0) move 1 unit up and 4 units right. Mark the point where you end up, and draw a line through the two points. ● x 0 –4 –2 2 4 –2 –4
The ratio of two quantities that change, such as slope, is a rate of change. A constant rate of change describes changes of the same amount during equal intervals. A variable rate of change describes changes of a different amount during equal intervals. The graph of a constant rate of change is a line, and the graph of a variable rate of change is not a line.
Additional Example 3: Identifying Rates of Change in Graphs Tell whether each graph shows a constant or variable rate of change. A. B. The graph is nonlinear, so the rate of change is variable. The graph is linear, so the rate of change is constant.
Check It Out: Example 3 Tell whether each graph shows a constant or variable rate of change. A. B. y y 4 4 2 2 x x 4 –4 –2 2 0 4 –4 –2 2 0 –2 –2 –4 –4 The graph is linear, so the rate of change is constant. The graph is nonlinear, so the rate of change is variable.
Additional Example 4: Using Rate of Change to Solve Problems The graph shows the distance a monarch butterfly travels overtime. Tell whether the graph shows a constant or variable rate of change. Then find how fast the butterfly is traveling.
Additional Example 4 Continued The graph is a line, so the butterfly is traveling at a constant rate of speed. The amount of distance is the rise, and the amount of time is the run. You can find the speed by finding the slope. rise (distance) run (time) 20 miles 1 hour slope (speed) = = The butterfly travels at a rate of 20 miles per hour.

Check It Out: Example 4 Continued The graph is a line, so the jogger is traveling at a constant rate of speed. The amount of distance is the rise, and the amount of time is the run. You can find the speed by finding the slope. rise (distance) run (time) 1 mi 7 min = slope (speed) = The jogger travels at a rate of 1 mile every 7 minutes.
