30 points and brainliest for the right answer :) I would like to know how to do this, so an explanation would be nice :P Thanks for the help!

Step-by-step explanation:

find the equation of the linear function   in the form of y=mx+b

m=y2-y1/x2-x1 =-3+11/-4+5=8

y=8x+29 ( when x=0, y=b=29)

out put  : -3 and -11 -3-(-11)=8 which is 1 unit

out put : 21 and 5 21-5=16   which is 2 unit (2*8)

output :53 and 29 53-29=24 which is 3 units (3*8)

ratio of change = f(b)-(f(a)/b-a

at point -3 and -11 : f(-3)-f(-11)/-4+5=-3+11/1=8

at point 21 and 5 : 21-5/-1+3=16/2=8

the graph always increasing and always equal 8

Step-by-step explanation:

● (a)

Let's determine the difference between the outputs of any two inputs that are one unit apart.

Let m be that difference.

2 and 3 are one unit apart since when you substract 2 from 3 you get 1.

● 3-2 = 1

Let's calculate m.

The output of 2 and 3 are respectively 45 and 53.

● m = 53 - 45

● m= 8

Let's determine the difference between the outputs of any two inputs that are 2 units apart.

Let m' be that difference

3 and 1 are 2 units apart since when you substract 1 from 3 you get 2.

● 3-1 = 2

The outputs of 1 and 3 are respectively 37 and 53.

● m'= 53-37

● m' = 16

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Let's determine the difference between the outputs of two inputs that are 3 units apart.

Let m" be that difference

0 and 3 are 3 units apart since when you substract 0 from 3 you get 3.

● 3-0 = 3

Let's calculate m":

The outputs of 0 and 3 are respectively 29 and 53

● m" = 53-29

● m" = 24

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● m = 8

● m'= 16

● m" = 24

Notice that all these values are multiples of 8.

● 8 = 8×1

● 16 = 8×2

● 24 = 8×3

Notice that each time the difference m is multiplied by the units that are between the inputs.

This is explained by the fact that the function is a linear one.

When the input interval grows the difference between the outputs grows two.
