Answer:

The given statement :

Rise is the horizontal change between any two points on the line

is a FALSE statement

Explanation:

We know that the average rate of change between two points or a slope of a line is given by the ration:

Rise/ Run

where Rise is the change in the y-value i.e. it is the vertical change between any two points on the line.

and Run is the change in the x-value i.e. it is the horizontal change between any two points on the line.

Hence, the given statement is FALSE.

False


"Rise" is the vertical change.


The horizontal change is called "run."
