The values on the table are:
a) the steepest slope is m=-2 (from the third option). We can see this because in the first option, the rate of change is 1 and in the second option is 1/5. Then for each increase of x, the value of y will be modified but not as much as in the equation y=-2x.
b)the equation y=-2x represents a decreasing line, since the slope is negative.
