Which has a steeper slope y=-2x or y=-3x

 y = -3x has the steeper slope

==========================================

Explanation:

Any linear equation is of the form y = mx+b, where m is the slope.

For y = -2x, the slope is -2. For y = -3x, the slope is -3.

We just look at the number to the left of x to find the slope.

To figure out which slope is steeper, we simply look to see which slope value is furthest from 0 on the number line. A slope of 0 itself is completely horizontal and flat. As the slope value moves away from zero, in either positive or negative direction, then the slope gets steeper and steeper.

In short, a slope of -3 is more steep compared to a slope of -2. Therefore, y = -3x is the answer.

The graph below helps visually confirm that y = -3x is indeed steeper. We drop one extra unit down each time we move to the right one space.

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
