4.3 Rate of Change and Slope Objective: SWBAT determine the slope of a line given a graph or two ordered pairs.

Slide 3

Mini Quiz 39 1.Find the domain and range of the function: 2. What is the greatest value in the range of y=2x+4 for the domain {-2, -1, 0, 1} Domain: All Real #s Range: y -1 y= 2(-2) + 4 =0 y = 2(-1) + 4 = 2 y = 2(0) + 4 = 4 y = 2(1) + 4 = 6 The highest output (y-value) is 6

Slide 4

Rate of Change What is the rate of change for the data to the left? change of dependent = $15 change of independent = 1 day $15 = $15/day 1 day What does the rate of change mean? It cost $15 more to rent a computer each day.

Slide 5

The table show the cost of mailing a 1-ounce letter in different years. Find the rate of change in cost for each time interval. During which time interval did the cost increase at the greatest rate? YearCost () 198825 199025 199129 200437 200842 What do you think??? Well lets find the rate of change in each time interval: From 1998 to 1990 From 1990 to 1991 From 1991 to 2004 From 2004 to 2008 = 0 per year = 4 per year = 0.62 per year = 1.25 per year So the time interval that increased the greatest was from 1990 to 1991

Slide 6

Quick Preview The diagram at the right shows the side view of a ski lift. 1.What is the vertical change from: a. A to B? b.B to C? c.C to D? 2.What is the horizontal change from: a.A to B? b.B to C? c.C to D 3.Find the ratio of the vertical change to the horizontal change for each section of the ski lift. 4.Which section is the steepest? 10 feet 40 feet 10 feet 30 feet A 1 B 4 C 1 B 3 C 3 D 3 = ; = ; = B to C

The Magnum Cedar Point, OH Ghost Rider Knotts Berry Farm Xcelerator Knotts Berry Farm Superman 6 Flags Magic Mountain Son of Beast Kings Island, OH How steep is the steepest roller coaster? These are completely vertical!

Slide 9

Imagine a roller coaster moving from LEFT to RIGHT

Slide 10

There are four different kinds of slope the coaster could encounter...

Slide 11

Slide 12

Slide 13

And 2 Special Cases The zero-fun coaster The impossibly scary coaster What kind of slope are they?

Slide 14

Aw! Thats zero fun!

Slide 15

Thats a really scary coaster, so the slope is

Slide 16

Tell me slope of each line POSITIVE NEGATIVE ZERO POSITIVE

Slide 17

How do you calculate the slope of a line? 1.Pick two points on the line 2.Calculate rise over run

Slide 18

Start with 2 points on gridline intersections

Slide 19

How do you calculate the slope of a line? Slope = Vertical change Horizontal change OR... Rise Run m Slope = m Rise Run

Slide 20

Model # 1: Watch me do the three steps Step 1: Choose 2 points Rise = 2 Run = 1 Rise Run 2 1 m = 2 Slope = Rise Run Step 2:

Slide 21

Model # 2: Watch me do the three steps Step 1: Choose 2 points Rise = -1 Run = 3 Rise Run 1 3 m = -1/3 Slope = Rise Run Step 2:

Slide 22

OK, GET READY, AROUND THE ROOM WE GO!!!!!

Slide 23

Practice # 3: Find the slope of this line Rise Run Rise = 3 Run = 2

Slide 24

Practice # 4: Find the slope of this line Rise = -1 Run = 3 Rise Run

Slide 25

Rise 3 4 Run THE SLOPE IS 3 4

Slide 26

Find the slope of the following line. The slope is 1 2

Slide 27

Find the slope of the line. The slope is. -3

Slide 28

When given the graph, it is easier to apply rise over run. 1) Determine the slope of the line.

Slide 29

Determine the slope of the line shown. 1.-2 2.- 3. 4.2

Slide 30

Determine the slope of the line. The line is decreasing (slope is negative). -2 1 Find points on the graph. Use two of them and apply rise over run.

Slide 31

What is the slope of a horizontal line? The line doesnt rise! All horizontal lines have a slope of 0.

Slide 32

What is the slope of a vertical line? The line doesnt run! All vertical lines have an undefined slope.

Slide 33

Find the slope of these lines. Black line 3 Red Line 1 Blue Line-1/2

Slide 34

Find the slope of these lines Orange line = 0 Green Line = Undefined
