Question

Which lines in the graph have a slope greater than 1 but less than 2?

line 1
line 2
line 3
line 4
line 5

Answer 1

Answer: 3 and 4

Explanation:

Answer 2

Lines 3 and 4

Explanation:

Let's examine the slope of each of the given lines to have the exact value and be able to answer the question. We use the definition of:
`slope=(rise)/(run)`

Line 1:
`slope=(rise)/(run)=(6)/(2) = 3`

Line 2:
`slope=(rise)/(run)=(6)/(3) = 2`

Line 3:
`slope=(rise)/(run)=(6)/(4) = 1.5`

Line 4:
`slope=(rise)/(run)=(6)/(5) = 1.2`

Line 5:
`slope=(rise)/(run)=(6)/(6) = 1`

Therefore the lines that have slope strictly greater than 1 and less than 2 are:

Lines 3 and 4
