Question

Consider the following two functions: f(x) = -.25x+4 and g(x)= .5x-1. State:

a. The y-intercept, x-intercept and slope of f(x)

b. The y-intercept, x-intercept and slope of g(x)

c. Determine the point of intersection. State your method used.

Answer 1

f(x)= -25x+4

y-inter x=0

y= -25(0)+4

=4

x-inter y=0

0= -25x+4

-4= -25x

x=4/25
