Question

Find the initial value for Function A and Function B.

Answer 1

Function A has the greater input value because the initial value for function A is 6 and the initial value for function B is 4

Explanation:

The initial value is found when the input is zero

For function A , when the input (or x) is zero the output is 6

For function B, let x =0

y = 7x+4

y = 0+4

y= 4

Initial value Function A = 6 and Initial Value Function B =4

Function A has the greater input value because the initial value for function A is 6 and the initial value for function B is 4

Answer 2

The initial value is found when the input (x) is equal to 0.

For table A when X is 0, y = 6.

For B set x to 0 and calculate Y:

y = 7(0) +4 = 0+4 = 4

So Function A has the greater initial value.

Initial value for A = 6

Initial value for B = 4
