Answer:

The line which has slope 1/3 is a shallow line.

The line which has slope 2 is a steep line.

Both are increasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compare the lines by finding the slope between each pair of points.

Using the slope formula, substitute the points.

[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \frac{4-2}{6-0} = \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \frac{7-1}{5-2} = \frac{6}{3} = 2[/tex]

The line which has slope 1/3 is a shallow line.

The line which has slope 2 is a steep line.
