Consider the function y=-2x+8 What is the effect of the graph for the given function if the slope of the function is changed to -10?

1 answer

Changing the slope of the function from -2 to -10 means that the graph will become steeper. This is because the slope of a line represents how steeply it rises or falls.

Therefore, if the slope of the function y = -10x + 8, the graph of the function will have a steeper slope compared to y = -2x + 8. This means that for every unit increase in x, the corresponding decrease in y will be larger, resulting in a steeper downward-sloping line.
