How does mc009-1.jpg compare to mc009-2.jpg?

Question

Group of answer choices

Function 2 and Function 1 have the same steepness, but function 2 has a negative slope and function 1 has a positive slope.

Function 2 is more steep than function 1.

Function 2 is less step than Function 1

Function 2 and 1 both have the same slope.

There is no correct answer given.

Answer 1

I'm unable to view images directly, but I can help you understand how to analyze the functions based on their slopes and steepness!

1. Positive vs. Negative Slope: If one function has a positive slope and the other has a negative slope, they will have different orientations. A positive slope means the line rises from left to right, while a negative slope means it falls.

2. Comparing Steepness: The steepness of the lines can be compared by looking at the absolute values of their slopes. A line with a larger absolute value of the slope is steeper.

3. Same Slope: If both functions have the same slope (either both positive or both negative), they are parallel, but this means they have the same steepness.

To choose the correct answer, you would need to analyze the slopes (positive or negative) and their absolute values (for steepness) from the images. If you can provide more details about the slopes from the functions represented in mc009-1.jpg and mc009-2.jpg, I can help you determine which choice may be correct!
