Will give metal! The functions p(x) and g(x) are shown below: g(x) = 9x p(x) = 9x Which statement best describes the graph of p(x) and g(x)? The graphs will both have their y-intercept equal to 1. The graphs will both have their y-intercept equal to 9. The graph of g(x) will eventually exceed the graph of p(x). The graph of p(x) will eventually exceed the graph of g(x).

OpenStudy (igreen):

Here's both of the graphs, they're the same line:

Now can you find out what the answer is? @Icalcorz16

OpenStudy (igreen):

@Icalcorz16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes I can thank you!

OpenStudy (igreen):

Okay, which one do you think it is? @Icalcorz16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it's either A or B

OpenStudy (igreen):

Hmm..do you know what a y-intercept is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Because if they are both the same line then neither can exceed each other right? And wouldn't the y intercept be 9?

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yes, they can't exceed each other, you got it. But I'm not so sure about the answer. Take a look at this:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the y intercept is 0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait so would it be A?

@iGreen

OpenStudy (igreen):

I don't think there is an answer..is there a 'None of the Above' option?

OpenStudy (igreen):

If not, A sounds like the best choice..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok thanks you!

OpenStudy (igreen):

No problem.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think none of the choices are true unless I am missing something

OpenStudy (igreen):

OpenStudy (igreen):

Me too. You should tell your teacher the question is messed up.
