Answer:

D. The slope of the function is positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the best thing to start with is the slope. Lets figure it out using the slope formula, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).

Using the points, (-4, -7) and (-3, -4),

(-4 - (-7)) / (-3 - (-4))

= 3 / 1

= 3

Right off the bat, you can see that C is incorrect.

Lets go through the other choices and check now.

Using our slope, lets write an equation in the slope intercept form.

y = -3x + b (derived from y=mx+b)

Now, lets plug in a point (let's say, (-4,-7)) to verify if 3 really is the y intercept.

-7 = 3(-4) + b

-7 = -12 +b

5 = b

Since 3 is not equal to 5, A is incorrect. That leaves us with choice B and D.

We know that the x-intercept is found as (0, a), meaning that this x intercept is (0, 5/3). Let's plug it into the equation!

0 = 3(5/3) + 5

0 = 5 + 5

0 = 10

Since this is obviously incorrect, our answer is D, the slope of the function is positive. Let me know if you have any other questions.

How to know if an angle is congruent?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Two angles are congruent if they have the same measure. If you didn't already know, when two lines intersect the vertical angles formed are congruent. For example, all the angles in a square are congruent. All the angles in a regular pentagon are 108°, therefore all the angles are congruent because they are the same.

Step-by-step explanation: Hope this helps:).........if not sorry:(
