ASVAB Mathematics Knowledge Question on Slope
Mathematics Knowledge
What is the slope of the line y = 5x – 3?
As an ASVAB tutor, I see the importance of teaching about the topic of slope for the Mathematics Knowledge section of the ASVAB. One of the subtopics I have included in my review of Mathematics Knowledge is angles and slope. Each line has a slope and a y-intercept. The slope is the steepness of the line. The y-intercept is the point that the line crosses the y-axis.
It is easy to see the slope and the y-intercept of the line that is presented.
Do you know what the slope of this line is, y = 5x-3? I will present the answer and explanation tomorrow.
