Answer the following questions honestly to assess your own abilities. This pre-quiz will not be graded. It can be used for you to determine your own strengths and weaknesses.

Could you explain what it means for a straight line to have a slope of $\frac {2}{3}$ ?

Yes, I could explain what such a slope would mean. Yes I could, but I would need to review some resources first. No, I would need to learn/relearn how to do this. I don’t know. I don’t want to analyze this task right now.

In words, what does a line having a slope of $\frac {2}{3}$ mean?
(Select all correct interpretations)

If you are having trouble remembering how to interpret what the slope of a line means, you may want to review this card.

As x increases by 2, y increases by 3 As x increases by 3, y increases by 2 As x increases by 1, y decreases by $\frac {2}{3}$ As x increases by 1, y increases by $\frac {2}{3}$ As x decreases by 2, y increases by 3 As x decreases by 2, y decreases by 3 As x decreases by 3, y increases by 2 As x decreases by 3, y decreases by 2

If you didn’t, why didn’t you answer the above question?

I don’t know the answer to this question yet. I don’t want to answer this question right now. I have already answered this question correctly.
