Question

DUE TONIGHT !! determine whether the statement is true or false. justify your answer. A line with a slope of -5/7 is steeper than a line with a slope of -6/7

Answer 1

False.

Slope is the "rise over run" (y/x) in a linear equation. Because the denominators are the same in both fractions, it means you can just focus on the numerator with the larger number as that one will be the steeper line.
