Question

What happens to a line as the slope approaches 0?

A. it becomes vertical
B. it gets flatter
C. it gets steeper
D. it goes to 0

Answer 1

Answer: B: It gets flatter

Explanation:

Slope is basically a ratio of the change in the x-value over the change in the y-value over a certain interval. It also shows how steep the line is. The higher (or further away from 0) the slope, the “steeper” the line is. If the slope is 0, the graph just looks like a horizontal line
