Question A:

Rewriting the table for f(x):

x      -1       0      1
f(x)   -7      -1      5

Notice that for every increase of one unit in 'x', there are an increase 6 units on f(x). Hence, the gradient of the slope of f(x) is 6. 

g(x) = 5x - 4 ⇒ This function follows the general form of the straight line equation, y = mx + c, where 'm' is the gradient and 'c' is the y-intercept.
Hence, the gradient of the slope of g(x) is 5.

The slope of f(x) is steeper than the slope of g(x).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Question B:

The y-intercept is the value of y where a straight line crosses the y-axis (or when x is zero).

From the table of f(x), the y-intercept is -1 (this is the value of 'y' when 'x' is zero)

From the given function g(x) = 5x - 4, the y-intercept is -4. 

f(x) has a greater y-intercept.

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 3y from both sides

add 9 to both sides

3y=12x+9

divide everything by 3

y=4x+3

y-intercept is 3

Plz help!!
garri49 [273]

Answer:

150 ft^3

.1 ton or 200 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume is given by

V = l*w*h

V  = 5*5*6

V = 150 ft^3

To find how much 1 ft^3 weighed take the weight and divide by the volume

15 tons / 150 ft^3

.1 ton / 1 ft^3

1 ft^3  weights .1 ton

We know that 1 ton = 2000 pounds

.1 ton = 200 pounds
