"You're finding the slope of a curve at a point, that's the derivative function."
"All right, so y equals mx plus b. So what is the m then? If b is our y-intercept, m will be our slope."
"The gradient points in the direction of steepest ascent. But with this additional observation it means that the length of the gradient is the slope in that direction."
"Not absolutely flat. Don't want it to be absolutely flat. You want to have a little bit of a slope."
"On a graph, suppose that the slope of a line is 1.5 and for point A on the line, the x-coordinate is 4 and the y-coordinate is 10. Also, for point B on the line, the x-coordinate is unknown while the y-coordinate is 7. What is the value of the x-coordinate for point B?"
"The slope formula: m equals y2 minus y1 divided by x2 minus x1."
"Derivative is basically representing the slope or the steepness of the original function."
"We all know that this stands for a certain limit, but the limit stands literally for the slope which is at that point."
"A laser level will make it much simpler to level the area for your foundation especially if it's on the slope."
"The slope formula will guide you through most slope questions."
"The equation of the tangent we found out to be y equals negative 2/5x plus five and four fifths."
"Slope is rise over run between any two points on the line."
"The rate of change is often times referred to as the slope."
"The slope is defined by the rise over the run of a line."
"Parallel lines have the exact same slope."
"A perpendicular slope is the negative reciprocal of the original slope."
"Every one across it goes two up, so the gradient, the value of M, is two."
"The slope of any vertical line is always undefined."
"One of the most important things that you're going to learn probably throughout all of algebra is the concept of the slope of a line."
"The slope of a line is probably one of the most important equations in all of algebra."
"The slope of this line has a name we call it transconductance."
"For lines to be parallel, they must have the same slope but different y-intercepts."

"A steeper slope represents an increased response rate."
"We don't want this driveway to be too steep for a car."
"The slope is the geometric interpretation of velocity."
"The lambda then becomes the slope of that line."
"The gradient of a line is change in Y over change in X."
"Why do we use m for slope? Well, the real reason is that nobody knows."
"In slope-intercept form, the slope is whatever the x is multiplied by."
"The slope tells us two things: whether the line is increasing or decreasing and how steep it is."
"The gradient of \( L2 \) is the negative reciprocal of \( L1 \)."
"The slope of the curve where x equals negative two is the derivative at that point."
"The slope is your change in Y over your change in X as you go from left to right."
"The starting point that's your y-intercept and the rate of change, that's your slope."
"Slope is your y2 minus y1 over x2 minus x1."
"Your slope is your rise over run as you go from left to right."
"The derivative is essentially going to be the slope of the tangent line to this function at that point x."
"The derivative gives the slope, the rise over run, of the function for a short distance."
"The slope of the line is the vertical rise over the horizontal run."
"What's the increase in inches of the height each year? Well, increase per year, that's the language of slope."

"The slope here can clearly be seen as equal to H, which is Planck's constant."
"The derivative is nothing but the slope of the tangent line at a point \( (x, f(x)) \)."
"Slope is the derivative of elevation with respect to horizontal distance."
"A line of slope m has Cartesian equation y equals mx plus b."
"First order derivative: At the point of greatest slope, the first order derivative has maximum value."
