Question

Marty and Ethan both wrote a function, but in different ways. Marty Ethan Whose function has the larger slope? Marty’s with a slope of 2/3 Ethan’s with a slope of 2/5 Marty’s with a slope of 1/3 Ethan’s with a slope of 1/5

Answer 1

the answer is c.) Marty’s with a slope of 1/3

Answer 2

Slope of any line is the angle by which any line is inclined to the x axis.Slope is the ratio of rise and run.

Slope = $\frac{Rise}{Run}.$.The vertical change between two points is called the rise, and the horizontal change is called the run.

In the given question Marty's has a slope $\frac{2}{3}$ and Ethan has a slope$\frac{2}{5}$ .

As the slope is positive the line will move up then right.Line with slope .Marty is haveing a greater slope than Ethan.

In second case Marty's slope is$\frac{1}{3}$and Ethan slope is $\frac{1}{5}$

Here Marty will have a greater slope.
