Hello,

Can you please assist with this:

Is line a's slope less than b's?

(1) Lines a and b intersect at point (10,1).
(2) Line a's y-intersect is greater than b's.

OA: C


P.S. Sorry the images are kind of jumbled up. I thought I uploaded them correctly. Please ignore the image captions.

A is in-suff.
B is in-suff.

Combining we can see that they are suff.


Can you please tell me if my solution is correct here?

Thanks a lot,
Sri

Hi Sri,

Yes, your solution is correct. In these types of graphing questions, it's usually a good idea to sketch out a few possibilities so that you can keep track of whether the answer to the given question changes or not.
