    SLOPE OF A LINE #1--KEY

    Directions: The slope of a line measures the steepness of a graph. To calculate the slope, you must find the quotient
    of the rise and run of the line. The rise measures the vertical change, or change in y-coordinates, between the two
    points. The run measures the horizontal change, or change in x-coordinates, between the two points. Find the slope
    of each line below. You can express the slope as a simplified fraction, a whole number, or a decimal.
