Answer

These equations are graphed by first using the Y= command on the graphing calculator and entering each equation into the Y1, Y2, and Y3 fields. Once inputted, using the GRAPH command will graph each of these graphs on the same plane. Additionally, as per the instructions, use the command ZOOM and 6 to show the graphs on the right display. The steepest graph is $ y= 2x+3. This is because it has the largest slope which is 2. The least steep graph is $ y= \frac{1}{2}x +3 $. This is because it has the smallest slope which is 1/2.
