1. Less 5-1 Slope

2. Math Vocabulary Slope: The diagonal “slope” of a line on a graph that runs through given points

3. Graphing Slope When graphing slope… we need to remember… SLOPE (m) = rise = up/down run right *Changing any whole #  fraction = EASIER to graph i.e. 2 = 2 5 = 5 1 1

4. Graphing a line through a given point: (1,2) ; slope = -3/2 (2, -3) ; slope = 5/4

5. Graphing a line through a given point: (-2,2) ; slope = 0 (-4, -3) ; slope = undefined

6. Practice… Graph a line through the given point, with the given slope: a) (4, 2) ; slope -3 b) (-3, -4); slope = ¼ c) (-1, 5) ; slope = 0
