Explain why the slope is positive or negative.

(1 point)

The slope is positive because the line increases as you move from left to right on the graph.

The slope is negative because the line increases as you move from left to right on the graph.

The slope is positive because the line decreases as you move from left to right on the graph.

The slope is negative because the line decreases as you move from left to right on the graph.

The correct answer is: The slope is positive because the line increases as you move from left to right on the graph.

The slope of a line is a measure of how steep the line is. If the line increases as you move from left to right, it means that the y-values are getting larger as the x-values get larger. This indicates a positive slope. Conversely, if the line decreases as you move from left to right, it means that the y-values are getting smaller as the x-values get larger, indicating a negative slope.
