PLEASE HELP THIS IS TIMED I WILL GIVE BRAINLIES The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):

x f(x)
−1 −3
0 0
1 3
g(x)

g(x) = 7x + 2

Part A: Write a sentence to compare the slope of the two functions and show the steps you used to determine the slope of f(x) and g(x). (6 points)

Part B: Which function has a greater y-intercept? Justify your answer. (4 points)

(10 points)

Answer

Given: Sorry the images are at the bottom.

To find:

Part A: Write a sentence to compare the slope of the two functions and show the steps you used to determine the slope of f(x) and g(x).

Part B: Which function has a greater y-intercept? Justify your answer.

Solution:

On inspection of values of x and f(x) it is clear that f(x) is a linear function

i.e.

1)Slope of f(x) and y-intercept of f(x):

Convert the function in slope intercept form and calculate the slope.

Slope intercept form:

Here,

Slope of f(x)=1,

y-intercept of f(x)=(0,0)

2) Slope and y-intercept of g(x):

Slope of g(x)=7

Y-INTERCEPT of g(x) =(0,2)

Part A:

Slope of f(x) is 1 and slope of g(x) is 7.

Part B:

g(x) has a greater y-intercept.

Hope it helps you.

you need a common difference between consecutive terms to be constant, like 1,2,3,4 or 2,4,6,8, or 1,3,6,9
