Question

Which function below has the smallest slope? A Graph with a line going through -5 on the Y Axis and Postive 2 and a half on the X axis. f(x) f(x) = 2x - 3 h(x) x h(x) -1 3 1 7 3 11

Answer 1

For the first line:
m = (-5 - 0) / (0 - 2.5) = 2

For the second line:
From the given equation,
m = 2

For the third, using the given coordinates (-1,3) (1,7)
m = (7 - 3) / (1 - (-1)) = 2

Therefore, all the slopes of the lines are 2 and none of them have the smallest slope compared to the others.
