Question

X f(x) −1 −6 0 −3 1 0 g(x) g(x) = 4x − 5 part

a.write a sentence to compare the slope of the two functions and show the steps you used to determine the slope of f(x) and g(x).

Answer 1

Slope of f(x) = (-3 - (-6)) / (0- (-1) = 3 / 1 = 3

Check with second and third points ; - slope = (0 -(-3) / (1 - 0) = 3/1 = 3

slope of g(x) = the coefficient of x which is 4.
