f(x) = 5x - 4 It's in the form of y = mx + b, where 'm' is the slope. So what's the slope here?

OpenStudy (igreen):

Correct, now for g(x), take any two points on the line and plug them into the slope formula and simplify, tell me what you get.

OpenStudy (igreen):

I got something else

OpenStudy (igreen):

Use (-1, -1) and (1, 3)

OpenStudy (igreen):

Correct

OpenStudy (igreen):

Now take two points in h(x) and find the slope

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yep

OpenStudy (igreen):

Find the slope

OpenStudy (igreen):

Correct. So: f(x) = 5 g(x) = 2 h(x) = 1/3 Which one is smallest?

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yep, you got it.
