Question

Which equation has the least steep graph?

Answer 1

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{4}x+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=\frac{1}{4}x+6$ is the least steeped graph

1. The greater the slope, the steeper the line.
2. Also you use the absolute values of the slopes when determining the steepness.

• So here it would be: $\frac{3}{4},7,\frac{1}{4},2$
• Now, arrange them from least to greatest: $\frac{1}{4},\frac{3}{4},2,7$

As you can see, $\frac{1}{4}$ is the smallest number/slope.

Hope this helps!
