  1. add the slopes. The largest sum would have the steepest slope.
    Do't worry about the extra constants flying around.

  5. "neb" is correct. 1 and 2 were mixed together. It was the question for number 2 but the answer options for number 1. The answer options are, "organic apples, pears, regular apples, We need more information to answer this question."

    Although "bat" still answered the question correctly, "Researcher" misplaced the questions and answers. So, if anyone is confused: there you go. :)
