Answer:
Given: Two functions, y = 2x + 1 ............... Function 1
and [tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x+1[/tex] .................. Function 2
Both functions are of straight line.
Slope-Point form of straight line is, y = mx + c
where , m = Slope of line and c = y intercept of line.
By comparing with Slope-Point form of straight line
we get,
Both lines have same y intercept.
But slope of function 1.i.e., 2 which is more than slope of function 2.i.e., [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Graph of straight line depends on the value of slopes.
line with more value of slope is more steeped than line with lesser value of slope.
Therefore, Function 1 is more steeped than Function 2.
