What does steeper mean?
To be more steep. We say "a steep slope" meaning the slope rises at a sharp angle, that is difficult to climb. A wall is steep because it goes straight up.
How are contour lines shown for a gentle slope?
Contours for a gentle slope are spaced equally and far apart, the closer the contour lines the steeper the slope.
Find the slope and y-intercept of x equals -6?
There is no y intercept, it is a straight verticle line a x = -6. And technically it has "infinite" slope (1/0), but it is more common to say "No slope".
What is a gentle slope?
When the contour lines are farther apart, this means that the slopes between them are gentle. On the other side, if the contour interval is smaller, the slope will be steep.
How can one tell if a slope is steep or gentle?
looking at it
Why is it difficult to climb a vertical slope than a gentle slope?
Gravity is always pulling objects down so when you climb upward gravity weighs you down, you have to use effort to move yourself in the oposite direction that gravity is pulling you that is why it is harder to climb up a slope. When you climb a gentle slope you still are using energy but it takes longer to reach the same height on a gentle slope versus a verticle slope. On a verticle slope you are climbing higher instead of farther so on each step gravity weighs you down much more than on a gentle slope. When climbing a gentle slope you don't rise as rapidly so gravity doesn't take as much of a toll on you and you have a chamce to recover.

What is another name for a gentle slope?
A gentle slope is also known as a gradual incline or a slight gradient.
What is the name of a geological ridge characterized by a gentle slope facing a steep slope?
A geological ridge characterized by a gentle slope facing a steep slope is known as an anticline. It is a type of fold in rock formations where the layers of rock arch upward, creating a gentle slope on one side (the crest) and a steeper slope on the opposite side.
What is the force makes it difficult to climb a steep mountain?
The force that makes it difficult to climb a steep mountain is gravity. Gravity is pulling you down towards the ground, making it harder to overcome the incline and requiring more effort to ascend the steep slope.
What type of slope will erode quicker a gentle slope or a steep slope?
A steep slope, due to the velocity of the water/runoff.

What is the definitions of cues?
A ridge of limestone with a steep slope and a gentle slope on the other side
