Option B: 8x+1 has the steepest slope
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is defined as the rate of change of a line
The steepness of a slope means how close it is to being vertical
The greater value of slope means, more steepness. The value of slope can wither b positive or negative
We have to compare the slopes of all given options to find the steepest slope
As the options are in slope-intercept form, the coefficients of x will be the slope
So,
a. Slope = -4
b. Slope = 8
c. Slope = 2/3 = 0.66
d . Slope = 1/7 = 0.14
We can see that the largest value of slope in negative and positive is 8
So,
Option B: 8x+1 has the steepest slope
