In this lesson, 10th-grade students will learn how to determine the slope of a line through various methods: from graphs, using the slope formula, and analyzing data in tables. Key concepts include the slope-intercept form of a line and the significance of slope values, including positive, negative, zero, and undefined slopes. This comprehensive approach, aligned with Elementary Algebra Standards, enhances students' ability to interpret and graph linear equations effectively.
