Answer:

The equation which has the steepest graph is:

Option: A

A.
y=11x-144

Explanation:

We know that the slope-intercept form of a line is given by:


y=mx+c

where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of a line.

  • If the absolute value of the slope is greatest then that line is most steep.

A)


y=11x-144

The slope is: 11

B)


y=(1)/(2)x+3

The slope is:
(1)/(2)

C)


y=7x+16

The slope is: 7

D)


y=3x+144

The slope of this line is: 3

The line which has the largest absolute value of slope is:


y=11x-144

Hence, the graph of this equation will be steepest.
