When analyzing three linear functions, Larae noticed that they all intersected at the point (9,4). What conclusion can Larae com
e to about the linear function with the largest slope? A. Larae cannot conclude anything. B. It has the highest y intercept. C. It has the middle y intercept. or D. It has the lowest y intercept
All 3 lines pass through the same point. The steepness of each line can help us to determine where the y-intercept of each line would lie.
The "flatter" the line that passes through this point, the higher up the y-intercept will be. The "steeper" the line that passes through this point, the lower the y-intercept will be. This means the line with the largest slope (the steepest line) will have the lowest y-intercept.
For this case, what we should do is evaluate the function for different points within the range shown. We then have the following table: x g(x) -2 -9 -1 3 0 7 1 3 2 -9 3 -29 4 -57 From where we observed that the average rate of change is: -13 Answer: the average rate of change of g over the interval [-2,4] is: -13
