The term grade is used to describe the inclination of a road. How does this term relate to the notion of slope of a line? Is a 4% grade very steep? Investigate the grades of some mountainous roads and determine their slopes. Write a brief essay on your findings.
Use slopes to show that the quadrilateral whose vertices are and is a parallelogram.
True or False :
To find the y-intercepts of the graph of an equation, let x = 0 and solve for y.
