First, lets solve f(x). g(x) is already given. Find the slope of f(x) by doing m = y2-y1/x2-x1. I'm going to use -1,-5 (1) and 0,-1 (2). -1-(-5) = 4 and 0-(-1) = 1. This means that the slope is 4 since 4/1 = 4. Now find y intercept (b). Since we know that y=4x+b, we can solve this by plugging in an ordered pair. I will use -1,-5. -5 = 4(-1) +b. With this, we see that -5 = -4+b and b = -1 since -5 = -4-1. Your equation for f(x) is y=4x-1. A: The slopes are equal since both of them are 4. B: g(x) has a greater y intercept since 3 > -1.
O it is not correct he can find the correct sum by counting and adding 8,9,10 so the answer is ten he was one of his answer he must not of counted right
