Answer:

the desired line is y = (1/2)x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Write these two points as (0, 1) and (-2, 0).

Now, as we go from (-2, 0) to (0, 1), x increases by 2 and y increases by 1. Thus, the slope, m, of the desired line is m = rise / run = 1 / 2.

Then the desired line is y = (1/2)x + 1 (since b is already given as (0, 1) )

Each of these statements are part of True/False game. Which statement is correct?

sergey [27]

Answer:

E. (The function is exponetial)

Step-by-step explanation:

We look at the output values and subtract them from their previous value to see it's slope.

6-2 = 4

12-6 = 6

4 ≠ 6, meaning that the slope is not constant.

4 < 6, meaning that the slope is increasing, meaning the function is exponential.
