9x - 37 = - 118
add 37 to both sides
9x - 37 + 37 = -118 + 37
simplify
9x = -81
divide both sides by 9
9x/9 = -81/9
simplify
x = - 9
answer
x = -9
The correct answer the slope of f(x) is greater than the slope of g(x). The y-intercept of f(x) is greater than the y-intercept of g(x)
At the standard 0.05 value, this is not significant, however at a 0.01 level, it would be significant
