A yield curve is a graph on which bonds are represented ... above those of longer-term treasuries, resulting in a line with a negative slope. This is known as an inverted yield curve, and for ...

The graphs above ... of a straight line that is perpendicular to \(y = 2x + 1\). The gradient of \(y = 2x + 1\) is 2. The reciprocal of 2 is \(\frac{1}{2}\), so the negative reciprocal of ...

The gradient of a straight line describes the slope or steepness of the line ... Gradients can be positive or negative, depending on the slant of the line. This line has a positive gradient ...
