1.3.2 Coordinate geometry in the (x, y) plane

Card 1 of 24

What does a positive gradient show about a line?

A

It rises from left to right.

B

For two points (x1,y1)(x_1,y_1)(x1​,y1​) and (x2,y2)(x_2,y_2)(x2​,y2​), the gradient is m=y2−y1x2−x1\boxed{m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}m=x2​−x1​y2​−y1​​​.

C

The output change per one-unit input increase.

D

Its gradient is undefined, and yyy is not single-valued.
