differentiable
Has defined slope
Differentiable describes a function smooth enough that its rate of change can be calculated at any point—a technical term in calculus.
A curve with sharp corners or breaks is not differentiable at those points.
The word extends to anything that can be distinguished from something else: The two products are barely differentiable.
