Determine which line is steeper by finding out which has a greater rise over run. I trust you know what rise over run is. You can determine which has a greater rise over run by dividing the rise by the run, and then whichever line has the largest decimal is the steepest.

To determine which line is steeper in a graph, you can calculate the slope of each line. The slope is the ratio of the vertical change (rise) to the horizontal change (run) between two points on the line. The line with the greater slope is steeper. You can also visually compare the steepness by observing the angle each line makes with the x-axis - the line with the greater angle is steeper.
