Gradient and Area of a Graph With Units

A real number is a number/value that shows a quantity (or amount) on a line/scale. For a graph showing two real quantities, the gradient and area also show real quantities.

Gradient

Gradient

  • For any graph the gradient represents: (y-axis units) per (x-axis units).
  • For example:
    • litres per second
    • £ per kg.
Area

Area

  • The area under the graph represents: (y-axis units) × (x-axis units).
  • For a velocity-time graph the area under the graph represents distance travelled because kmh × h = km.
