Intuitive Exploration of the Slope a Line

Cartoon: Rollercoaster
Slide the slider all the way to the right. Then move the LARGE POINTS around to change the slope of the line. Use this interactive figure to help you investigate slope. How is slope worked out? Can you make the slope zero? Or negative? What happens for a flat horizontal line? What happens for a straight up and down line?
