Question 7 • CMS 2026-2027 NC Math 1 CREDIT RECOVERY

If a linear function has a slope of 2, what does this tell us?

Answer
A
The line rises two units for every one unit it moves horizontally.
B
The line rises one unit for every two units it moves horizontally.
C
The line's rise is half of its run.
D
The line's rise is twice its run.

Explanation

Slope is the ratio of vertical change (rise) to horizontal change (run). A slope of 2 means rise/run = 2, so the line rises 2 units for every 1 unit it moves horizontally. This matches “The line rises two units for every one unit it moves horizontally.”
