Answer:

A and B.

Explanation:

To get to know the graph with least slope, we have to write all equations in the form y=mx + c.

where m is the slope and c is the the y-intercept.

A. y = x + 6

For this equation m = 1

B. y = -x - 9

For equation B, m = -1

C. y = 2x + 1

In this equation, m = 2

D. y = -7x - 2

In equation D, m = -7

The equation with the highest slope is D while the one with the least slope/steep is A and B.
