Rate of Change
The relation between two quantities which displays how much greater one quantity is than another is called ratio.
Slope
The change in the vertical distances is known as the rise and the change in the horizontal distances is known as the run. So, the rise divided by run is nothing but a slope value. It is calculated with simple algebraic equations as:
Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Educational Content on Estimating the Slope of a Tangent Line**
### Instruction:
Estimate the slope (slope = rise/run) of the tangent line to the curve.
### Graph Description:
The image depicts a plot with the following features:
- **Axes:** The graph features two axes, with the x-axis labeled from -1 to 9 and the y-axis from -1 to 10.
- **Curve:** A blue curve runs across the graph showing an undulating line that rises to a peak around x=3, then descends.
- **Tangent Line:** A pink dashed line represents the tangent to the curve at a specific point (marked with an open circle around x=2, y=6). The tangent line is extended beyond the curve, indicating the linear approximation at that point.
### Task:
- Estimate the slope of the tangent line by determining the "rise over run." This involves measuring the vertical change (rise) and the horizontal change (run) between two points on the tangent line.
### Interaction:
- Users are prompted to enter their estimated slope value in an answer box and click "Check Answer" to receive feedback.
### Additional Features:
- There are icons for zooming in and out, and for resetting the graph view.
