Question 92409: how do i graph

and

on the same coordinate plane?
what type of lines are formed?
how do i compare their slopes?

Answer by checkley71(8403)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=2x-1 (red line) this line has a slope (m=2)
y=-x+2 (green line) this line has a slope (m=-1)
(graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, y = 2x -1 and y = -x +2).
INTERSECTING STREIGHT LINES ARE FORMED.
COMPARE THE SLOPES -- ONE IS POSITIVE & THE OTHER IS NEGATIVE.
