Helpss

Answer 1

@johnweldon1993 last one i promise ;-;

Answer 2

When x goes up 1...what does f(x) go up by?

x | y
-------
-1| -5
0 | -1

x went up 1....y went up by how many?

Answer 3

5?

Answer 4

Well to get from
-5 to -1 we have to add 4 right?

Answer 5

yes

Answer 6

Alright...so when x goes up by 1...y " or f(x) " goes up by 4....so that would be our slope in our equation

f(x) = 4x but what is our y-intercept....well that occurs when x = 0.....what does 'y' equal when 'x' = 0 "hint look above :)

Answer 7

-1

Answer 8

Right...

so that is our equation for f(x)

f(x) = 4x - 1


Make sense?

Alright...now...we compare the slopes of f(x) and g(x)

Answer 9

okay cx

Answer 10

Notice how both f(x) and g(x) are both in slope intercept form y = mx + b

'm' there is the slope...and 'b' is the y-intercept...that means

\(\large f(x) = 4x - 1\) the 4 would be our slope and the -1 would be the y-intercept
\(\large g(x) = 4x + 3\) the 4 would be the slope again...but the 'y' intercept will be 3

Answer 11

So to "compare" the slopes....they are the same :)

Answer 12

And part B) which has a greater 'y' intercept? well

f(x) has -1
and
g(x) has 3

so obviously.... ( ) has the bigger one
^
fill that in :P

Answer 13

so i could put
f(x)=4x−1 the 4 would be our slope and the -1 would be the y-intercept
g(x)=4x+3 the 4 would be the slope again...but the 'y' intercept will be 3, they are the same

Answer 14

g(x)

Answer 15

well for part A ...dont mention the y-intercepts yet...thats not needed until part B

For part B ....write the equations again but only say the y-intercepts not the slopes

:)

Answer 16

im a bit confused, but im also listening to the comedy radio again, so im not focused XD

Answer 17

Lol oh god no turn it off XD

A) f(x) = 4x - 1 slope = 4
g(x) = 4x + 3 slope = 4 They have the same slope

B) f(x) = 4x - 1 y-intercept = -1
g(x) = 4x + 3 y-intercept = 3 g(x) has the greater y-intercept

Answer 18

i already had it, you didnt have to do it, i just had to re read it XD
