Practice Problems
Try them, get help one step at a time, then print how it went.
Practice: try it, then get help one step at a time
Two points, tables, graphs, and the special cases. Hint gives a nudge, Show next step shows one worked step at a time, Reveal answer checks, and Hide help / start over clears the card. Say rise over run every time.

Finished the practice? Print a page that shows each question, what you typed or chose, the correct answer, and how it went. Good for showing a teacher or keeping in a folder.

On paper or an index card. Use the math word and the plain-English word.
- In your own words: what is slope, and what goes on the top and bottom of the fraction?
- Find the slope through (2, 1) and (6, 9).
- A table: x = 0, 3, 6 and y = 12, 6, 0. Slope?
- Why does a vertical line have no slope, and what is the slope of a horizontal line?

- The rate of change: how much y changes for each step of x. Rise (change in y) on top, run (change in x) on the bottom.
- Rise 9 − 1 = 8, run 6 − 2 = 4, slope 2.
- Rise −6 per run of 3: slope −2. Falling.
- Vertical: the run is 0 and you cannot divide by 0. Horizontal: rise 0, so slope 0.
