Question

timmy writes the equation f(x)= 1/4x-1.he then doubles both of the terms on the right side to create the equation g(x)= 1/2x-2.how does the graph of g(x) compare to the graph of f(x)?

Answer 1

Answer: C on edg

Explanation:

just took the test

Answer 2

we have

`f(x)=(1)/(4)x-1`

`g(x)=(1)/(2)x-2`

we know that

the slope of f(x) is
`(1)/(4)`

the slope of g(x) is
`(1)/(2)`

`(1)/(2) > (1)/(4)`

so

g(x) is steeper than f(x)

the y-intercept of f(x) is
`-1`

the y-intercept of g(x) is
`-2`

`-2 < -1`

so

g(x) has a lower y-intercept

therefore

the answer is

The line of g(x) is steeper and has a lower y-intercept
