Question

which equation has the steepest graph? A. y=7x-1 B. y=-5x+9 C. y=x-4 D. y=-9x+6

Answer 1

pretty sure it c because the y intercept is the highest negative number

Answer 2

Answer:

D. $y=-9x+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to choose the equation, which has the steepest graph from our given equations.

We know that steepness of a graph is known as the slope of graph. We know that steepness stands for rising or falling sharply.

The graph with most negative or positive slope will be the steepest graph.

We can see that the equation represented by option D is falling sharply. As the slope of line is $-9$, so it is the correct choice.
