Answer:

A --- unless d is supposed to be "y= -7x + 2"

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is m in y=mx + b

So:

a. y= -2x + 11 slope= -2

b. y= x + 4 slope= 1

c. y= -x + 7 slope= -1

d. y= -7 + 2 (I don's see an x but if there were an x I assume that the slope would equal -7)

The higher the m value, the steeper the slope because it is m/1

So, -2/1 is steeper than 1/1 or -1/1
