Reorder the following equations in ascending order of steepness: y= 15x + 5 y= 0.15x - 1 y=x y= x + 100

y= 0.15x - 1, y = x, y = x + 100, y = 15x + 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the slope of a line is less than 1 (if the slope is a decimal), the slope will not be steep. But when the slope is more than 1, the slope will be steeper than the average.

According to that rule, the steepest will be y = 15x + 5.

The next steepest equations will be y = x and y = x + 100 (they are both at the same degree of steepness; the intercept does not impact the steepness of the line).

The least steepest will bey = 0.15x - 1.

So, the order, from least steep to most steep, will be y= 0.15x - 1, y = x, y = x + 100, y = 15x + 5.

Hope this helps!

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
