P(x)=58x−311

q(x)=85x−311

How does the graph of p compare to the graph of q?

Question 2 options:

The graph of p has a different y-intercept than the graph of q.


The graph of p is less steep than the graph of q.


The graph of p is steeper than the graph of q.


The graph of p is parallel to the graph of q.

steempness is slope

y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y inttercept
so we gots
p(x)=58x-311
q(x)=85x-311
same y intercept
graph of p(x) is less steep than q(x)
q(x) is steeper than p(x)
not paralell because slopes are diferent

answer is 2nd option

The graph of p is less steep because it has a smaller slope of only 58 while q has a slope of 85.
