4.04 Identify slope and describe lines
Interactive practice questions
Consider the points $A$A, $B$B and $C$C.
Complete the directions that explain how to move from point $A$A to point $B$B.
From $A$A, move $\editable{}$ units down and $\editable{}$ units to the right.
Now express this direction of movement as a simplified ratio, comparing vertical movement to horizontal movement.

Complete the directions that explain how to move from point $A$A to point $C$C.
From $A$A, move $\editable{}$ units down and $\editable{}$ units to the right.
Again, express this direction of the movement as a simplified ratio, comparing vertical movement to horizontal movement.

Therefore state the slope of the line, in simplified form.
State the slope and $y$y-value of the $y$y-intercept of the equation, $y=2+10x$y=2+10x.
State the slope and $y$y-value of the $y$y-intercept of the equation, $y=-2x$y=−2x.
What kind of slope does the following line have?
