Question

Raoul says that function B has a greater initial value. Is Raoul correct? Justify your answer

Answer 1

Raoul is correct

Explanation:

Given

See attachment for missing details

Required

Determine if Raoul is correct or not

The initial value of both functions is when
`x = 0`

For function A (the graph)

`y = 0` when
`x = 0`

So, the initial value of the function A is 0

For function B (the table)

`y = 3` when
`x = 0`

So, the initial value of the function B is 3

We can then conclude that Raoul is correct because 3 is greater than 0
