Question

Drag each tile to the correct box. Not all tiles will be used. Find the increasing functions. Then arrange the increasing functions in order from least to greatest rate of change.

Answer 1

The rate of increase is defined by the slope.

As all the equations of the lines are in slope-intercept form, the slope is the coefficient of x.

Then, we can order in increasing value of their slopes.

The least increasing line is:

1) y=-1/2*x+1/2

Then, in increasing order, we have:

2) y=1/2*x-2

3) y=3/4*x-10

4) y=4/3*x-7/3

5) y=3/2*x-11/2

6) y=5/2*x+10
