To compare the steepness of the slope, we can calculate the difference in y-values for a given change in x-value. In the table, when x increases by 1, y increases by 1.25, resulting in a slope of 1.25/1 = 1.25.
For the graph, when x increases by 4, y increases by 2, resulting in a slope of 2/4 = 0.5. Therefore, the table has a steeper slope.
To compare the y-intercepts, we need to find the value of y when x is equal to 0. In the table, when x = 0, there is no corresponding y-value given. However, in the graph, we can see that when x = 0, y is approximately 2. Therefore, the graph has a bigger y-intercept compared to the table.
