Question

How do i figure this out?

Answer 1

Slope of function A is greater than slope of function B

Explanation:

You calculate the gradient (slope) of function B. That is, change in y divided by change in x.

Take point (0, 1) and (2, 5) from the graph of function B.

change in y = 4

change in x = 2

gradient = 2

b(x) = 2x + 1

Therefore the function B has a lesser slope than function A
