Answer:
B
Explanation:
Determine the equation of the line given by the table and compare with given options.
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
calculate m using the slope formula
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 9) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (7, 19) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table
m =
=
= 2 , then
y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation of the line
to find c substitute any ordered pair from the table into the partial equation.
using (6, 17 ), that is x = 6, y = 17 , then
17 = 12 + c ⇒ c = 17 - 12 = 5
y = 2x + 5 ← equation of line from table, with y- intercept c = 5
thus the function with a y- intercept greater than the table line is B
