Column A

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer a

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The slope m of a line passing through points P(a, b) and Q(c, d) is found using the formula:

                     $m= \frac{b-d}{a-c}$.

Thus, the slope in A is $m= \frac{12-2}{-4-(-10)}=\frac{10}{6}=\frac{5}{3}$.

The slope in B is $m= \frac{-4-10}{6-18}=\frac{-14}{-12}=\frac{7}{6}$.

Now, to compare 7/6  to 5/3, we can write the second fraction as 10/6.


So, the slope in A is larger than the slope in B.
