Y = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

6/36 = y/3

Y = 1/2

Find the slope of each line defined below and compare their values. Down-drop Less than, greater than, equal to.

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

$\displaystyle equal\:to \\ Line\:B: 1 \\ Line\:A: -1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting from the y-intercept of $\displaystyle [0, -2],$ you do $\displaystyle \frac{rise}{run}$ by either moving one block south over one block west or one block north over one block east [west and south are negatives].

Now, for Line A, we need to convert this Linear Standard Equation to Slope-Intercept Form, $\displaystyle y = mx + b,$ where the slope is represented by m:

x + y = 3

- x - x

__________

$\displaystyle y = -x + 3$

So, the slope of Line A is $\displaystyle -1,$ and since −1 is less than 1, less than would be the answer, HOWEVER, they BOTH have some slope of 1, so since −1 is the negative absolute value of 1, equal to will be the answer.
