Question

The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):

Answer 1

Answer:

Use 2 points from he table to find the slope of f(x):

• (0, -1) and (1, 7)

The slope is:

• m = (7 - (-1))/1 = 8

The y - intercept is b = -1 according to point (0, -1).

Part A

The lines are:

• f(x) = 8x - 1
• g(x) = 3x - 2

The f(x) has greater slope since 8 > 3 and greater y-intercept since -1 > - 2.

Part B

See above
