Question

The equation below represents Function A and the graph represents Function B:

Function A

f(x) = – 2x + 1

Function B

graph of line going through ordered pairs negative 1, negative 5 and 2, 1 and 3, 3

Which equation best compares the slopes of the two functions?

Slope of Function B = 2 x Slope of Function A.

Slope of Function A = Slope of Function B

Slope of Function A = 2 x Slope of Function B

Slope of Function B = – Slope of Function A

Someone please help me asap!!

Answer 1

do you know how to calculate the slope of a line?

Answer 2

the slope of a line is the change in y as a ratio to the change in x
the slope is the rate of change commonly refereed to as the rise over run
given 2 points on a line (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) the slope m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Answer 3

Function A : f(x) = -2x + 1 form y = m x + b can you identify the slope m
Function B: you have 2 points on the line you can calculate the slope

This question is asking you to compare the slope for function A with the slope for Function B choose the option that is true.
