Describe how you can tell whether a lines slope is greater than 1,equal to 1, or less than 1

From the equation of the line:-

Convert the line to the slope/intercept form

y = mx + b

m = slope  so this value will tell you what you want to know.

For example  y = x - 3 has a slope of 1

and y = 0.5x + 2 has a slope of less than 1.

You can determine by observing how the line slants on a graph, and also by using the slope formula given as

You can determine whether a slope of a line by observing the line on the graph as follows:

The slope of a line that passes through two points on a coordinate plane is the change in y over change in x.

Slope (m) can be calculated using the formula below:

See diagram below to showing the rise and run of a slope.

third option: 6x+8

step-by-step explanation:

we can see that the given question is a sum of series and the values of n vary from 0 to 3

the first term will be:

when n=0, [(0)*x+2] => (0+2) => 2

when n=1, [(1)*x+2] => (x+2) => x+2

when n=2, [(2)*x+2] => 2x+2

when n=4, [(3)*x+2] => 3x+2

so adding up all the terms will give us:

=2+x+2+2x+2+3x+2

=x+2x+3x+2+2+2+2

=6x+8

so,

third option is the correct answer ..

b

step-by-step explanation:

given

- 2 (3x + 12y - 5 - 17x - 16y + 4 )

simplify the parenthesis by collecting like terms

= - 2 (- 14x - 4y - 1) ← distribute the parenthesis by - 2

= 28x + 8y + 2 → b
