The Slope of a Line

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

The slope of a line is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change between any two of its points — rise over run.

Show

A line climbing 2 units for every 1 unit rightward has slope 2; steeper lines carry larger rises for the same run.
