Answer: Function 2 has a greater rate of change by 13/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We must work with linear equations, remember that the general shape is:

y = a*x + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Ok, first we want to find the rate of change (or the slope) of the graphed line:

We know that for a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

The slope is:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Then for the graphed function, we can see that it passes through the points:

(0, -2) and (4, 0)

Then the slope is:

a = (0 -(-2))/(4 - 0) = 2/4 = 1/2

Now, the slope of the second line is 15/4.

Let's calculate the difference between the slopes:

15/4 - 1/2 = 15/4 - 2/4 = 13/4

(notice that we are calculating slope2 - slope1)

Then the correct option is:

Function 2 has a greater rate of change by 13/4

Write the equation of a line that goes through the points (-2, -5) and (3, -10)
AlekseyPX
The equation for slope between two points is (y1-y2)/x1-x2
Plug the points into the equation

-5-(-10)/-2-3
5/5
m=1
To find the equation, use y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-(-5)=1(x-(-2))
y+5=x+2
y=x+2-5
y=x-3

Solve for x. <br> 2(x-2)= 6x + 2 -2(-2x - 4)
Lena [83]

Answer:-7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-2)=6x+2-2(-2x-4)

Open brackets

2x-4=6x+2+4x+8

Collect like terms

-4-2-8=6x+4x-2x

-14=8x

Divide both sides by 8

-14/8=8x/8

-7/4=x

x=-7/4
