Question

Which of the following functions has the steepest slope?
A. y= -3x-4
B. y= 2x+3
C. y=-4x+1
D. y=x+6

Answer 1

the higher the coefficient of x the steeper the slope ( ignoring the sign)

Answer 2

these equations are all of the form
y = mx + b

where m = slope

Answer 3

So then it would be C right?

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

Thank you.

Answer 6

the difference between positive and negative slopes is their direction
