This math topic focuses on calculating the slope of a line given the changes in the x and y coordinates between two points on a graph, using decimal values. Each problem provides the increments by which points on the x-axis (X) and y-axis (Y) increase or decrease and asks to find the slope based on those changes. The slopes are calculated in a variety of situations where Y may either increase or decrease as X either increases or decreases, challenging students to apply the formula for slope in various contexts.
