Step-by-step explanation:
( 0,-4) that the answer
Y = 2x + 7.....the slope is 2 and the y int is 7
y = 1/2x + 7...the slope is 1/2 and the y int is 7
In comparison, the only difference is the slope. And if the original equation has a slope of 2, and it is changed to a slope of 1/2, then it will have a " less steep " slope. In other words, the slope will not be as steep....but the y intercepts will be the same.
The negative sign will have an effect in terms of which way the graph opens up. Since the function starts off negatively the graph will open down, like an upside down U. Rather if the function started off positive I.e Y=x^2 the graph will open upwards like a upright U.
