Compare and Contrast. Below are two sets of points. Find the slopes between the two points and compare them. Choose the statement that is true about the values of the slopes
Set #1
(2, 4) and (1, 1)
Set #2
(4, 6) and (2, 7)
what ones right?
The slope of Set #1 is smaller than the slope of Set #2.
The slope of Set #1 is larger than the slope of Set #2.
The slope of Set #1 is the same as the slope of Set #2.
None of the statements above describe slopes of sets shown
Set #1

The slope of Set #1 is smaller than the slope of Set #2.
The slope of Set #1 is larger than the slope of Set #2.

-
(2, 4) and (1, 1)
m = (1 - 4) / (1 - 2) = -3/-1 = 3
(4, 6) and (2, 7)
m = ( 7 - 6) / (2 - 4) = 1/(-2) = -0.5
thus
The slope of Set #1 is larger than the slope of Set #2.

.
m = (1 - 4) / (1 - 2) = -3/-1 = 3
(4, 6) and (2, 7)
m = ( 7 - 6) / (2 - 4) = 1/(-2) = -0.5
thus
The slope of Set #1 is larger than the slope of Set #2.
