Question

How does the slope of the red triangle compare to the slope of the blue triangle?

A. The slope of the blue triangle is twice the slope of the red triangle
B. The slope of the red triangle is steeper than the slope of the blue triangle
C. The slope of the two triangles are the same
D. The slope of the red triangle is half the slope of the blue triangle

I think its A or D, i think its more D?

Answer 5

A and D both means the same thing !

Answer 6

Right? lol

Answer 7

The slope is rise/run

slope of blue triangle is 4/6 which reduces to 2/3
slope of red triangle is - 2/3
so what do you think now ?

Answer 8

A?

Answer 9

that should tell you that A and D are wrong because there can't be two right answers

Answer 10

oh

Answer 11

Is it B?

Answer 13

Do u know the answer @Reaper534

Answer 14

Why do you say B?

Answer 15

Cuz Texaschick said it wasnt A or D, so I think it might be B

Answer 16

tbh i thought it was D

Answer 17

Think about the Maths we are dealing with, rather than guess work! :)
We said that the slope of each was equal to 2/3 (the blue triangle was 4/6 = 2/3, and the red triangle was 2/3 already). Reread your answer choices, and think about it again.

Answer 18

OHH simplify 4/6 and u get 2/3 and blue is already 2/3 so that means they both are the same right?
