Question

Which slope is steeper 4/8 or 3/10 and why

Answer 1

4/8

slope=y/x

so just by your imagination or put (8,4) on "Cartesian coordinate system" and connect it with Origin of coordinates.now put (10,3) on it and do the same.

now compare them.

you'll see 4/8 is steeper.

Answer 2

4/8 is steeper than 3/10

Explanation:

4 is half of 8 and in decimal form is 0.5. 3/10 in decimal form is 0.3. Therefore 0.5 is greater than 0.3, so 4/8 is considered to be steeper than 3/10.
