A. Trail X has a positive slope (it runs uphill).
B. Trail X is steeper than trail Y.
C. Trail X has a negative slope (it runs downhill).
D. Trail Y is steeper than trail X.

Answer 1

I can choose more than 1

Answer 2

can you draw a makeshift graph?

Answer 3

I could attempt but there is no graph that goes with it.

Answer 4

so then x would be a negative cause its going from quadrant 2 to 4 and y is going from 3 to 1.

Answer 5

right i think it would look like this because perpendicular lines intersect i couldn't think of how else they would be perpendicular

Answer 6

would it be C and D?

Answer 7

Ik C for sure

Answer 8

Is X steeper then Y?

Answer 9

Not much help........ I would say Y is steeper since they give you the slope.......
