the graph of lines A and B below.

Which statement is true about lines A and B?
A has a smaller slope than B.
A and B both have slopes greater than 1.
A has a larger slope than B.
A and B both have slopes less than 1.

To determine the relationship between the slopes of lines A and B, you would need to analyze the graph provided. Since I can't see the graph, I'll guide you through how to assess the statements based on the visual information you would have:

  1. Compare the steepness of lines A and B:

    • If line A rises less steeply than line B when moving from left to right, then line A has a smaller slope than line B.
    • If line A rises more steeply than line B, then line A has a larger slope than line B.

  2. Determine if the slopes are greater or less than 1:

    • If both lines rise more than they run (steeper than a 45-degree angle), both slopes are greater than 1.
    • If they rise less than they run (flatter than a 45-degree angle), both slopes are less than 1.

By visually analyzing the graph based on this guidance, you can identify which of the statements is true. If you can provide more specific details or characteristics of lines A and B, I can assist further!
