Describe what slope is and what the numerator and denominator represent for slope (such as 3/4). Give 2 examples of where slope can be found in the real world.

So slope is known as rise over run, or x/y. in your case of 3/4, the slope is y=3 and x=4. The slope is equal to the growth rate. It measures steepness, so in real life you could apply it to finding the steepness of a hill for construction, or perhaps how steeply your speed grows from 0 to 100 when driving a car.
