Answer:

A steep slope means that the object is increasing in speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about how less time is being used, and more distance is being reached. The steeper the slope, the less the speed to time ratio becomes. Basically a steep slope means that you are going to a certain distance in less time, which means you are traveling faster.
