All straight line graphs have an equation that can be written in the form 𝑦 equals 𝑚𝑥 add 𝑐, where 𝑚, the coefficient of the 𝑥 term, is the gradient or slope of the line. The constant, 𝑐, is ...
The gradient of a straight line describes the slope or steepness of the line. \(\text{Gradient =}~\frac{change~in~y}{change~in~x}\) To determine the gradient of a line: choose any two points on the ...
