Which function below has the largest slope? f(x) x f(x) -3 -10 -1 -7 1 -4 or g(x) g(x) g(x) = 1/2x+3 or h(x) Lance gains 1 level each time he plays his favorite video game. He started at level 10.

Try finding the slope for each choice.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How would I do that? I suck at this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(Y2-Y1)/(X2 - X1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For (X1, Y1) and (X2, Y2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For the second and third one how do I find it

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

g(x)=1/2x+3 This is in the form of point-slope form, of which 1/2 is the slope and 3 is the y-intercept

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here's how. The third is a basic linear. For every x, f(x) increases by 1.

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

He means h(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The second one is a rational. So it's obviously decreasing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And yes h(x), sorry.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the answer would be the last one right?

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

nop

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or the first one? I got 2/3
