Answer:

B is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

  • because x=2y-8 is same as y=1/2 x+4
  • x=5y-20 is the same as y=1/5 x+4
  • slope of the first is 1/2
  • slope of the second is 1/5
  • so 1/2>1/5

there y intercept are the same which is 4

The graph of x=2(y-4) has greater slope than the graph of x=5(y-4), the correct option is B.

What is the standard equation of a line?

The standard equation of a line is given by

y = mx+c

Here m is the slope and c is the y intercept

The slope can be determined by

m = (y₂ -y₁)/(x₂ -x₁)

The equation of the line is

x=2(y-4)

x=5(y-4)

y =  (1/2)x +4  

y = (1/5)x +4

The slope is (1/2) and (1/5),

(1/2) > (1/5)
