Question

anonymous · Answer

Compare and contrast these four functions using complete sentences. Focus on the slope and y-intercept first, and then on any additional properties of each function.

dumbcow · Answer

first get all four into "y=mx+b" form so you can compare slopes and y-int

anonymous · Answer

How do i do that..

dumbcow · Answer

well for option 1:
y-int is the initial value 
slope is rate of change (how much increase or decrease for each dog)

dumbcow · Answer

option 2:
calculate slope using
$$m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}$$
then solve for y_int (b)
$$y_1 = mx_1 +b$$

dumbcow · Answer

option 3:
look at y_int on graph (0,5)
calculate slope same as in option 2 using 2 points on graph (0,5), (2.5,0)
