[size=200]Spend a minute moving around the points on the line below to see what happens to the SLOPE.[/size]
[size=200]In your own words, what is the difference between positive and negative slope?[/size]
[size=150][size=200]Look at the graph below. How was the slope determined? Why is it negative?[/size][/size]
[size=200]Spend a minute moving the points around on the graph below to see what happens. Can you create a positive slope?[/size]
[size=200]Create a slope triangle that is 5 by 10 ( a rise of 5 and a run of 10).[/size]
[size=200]On your 5 by 10 triangle, why does it say the slope is 1/2 instead of 5/10?[/size]
