1. is m=-1/3
2. is m= 1
3. is m=1
the steepest function(s) is 2. and 3.
2A. f(1/2)=5(1/2)-1
5(1/2)=2.5
2.5-1=1.5 the answer is 1.5
2B. f(-2)=5(-2)-1
5(-2)=-10
-10-1=-11 the answer is -11
3. f(-3)=-3(-3)+1 which equals 10.
f(4)=-3(4)+1 which equals -11
-5=-3(x)+1
-5-1=-6 and 1-1=0 so you cancel that and you are left with -3x.
-6÷-3=3 and -3x÷-3=x.
3=x. the table should go:
-3:10
3:-5
4:-11
