1) Use the slider m to change the slope of the line y = mx + 4.
2) Move Points A and B. What do you notice about the slope of the line?
3) How would you calculate the slope m = rise / run?
4) What do you notice when m = 0? How would you describe the line?
5) What would the run be equal to for a vertical line? What would the slope be?
