Question

line A (y=2x + 4) is transformed into Line B (y=4x +9). which best describes the new slope and y-intercept? the slope is ___, and the line is shifted ____. a) steeper b) flatter

Answer 1

Line A is y=2x+4

Line B is y=4x+9

The slope of line A is 2 and the slope of line B is 4.

The y-inetercept of line A is 4 and y-intercept of line B is 9.

Thus, line B is steeper than line A as slope of line B is greater than line B.

The slope is steeper and the line is shifted upwards.
