and a y-intercept of 3. How does this function compare to the linear function that is represented

by the equation Y+11--(x-18)?

It has the same slope and the same y-intercept.

It has the same slope and a different y-intercept.

It has the same y-intercept and a different slope.

Corrected Question

A linear function has a slope of
-(7)/(9) and a y-intercept of 3. How does this function compare to the linear function that is represented by the equation
y+11=-(7)/(9)(x-18) ?

Answer:

(A)It has the same slope and the same y-intercept.

Explanation:

First linear function

Slope =
-(7)/(9)

y-intercept =3

Second Linear function


y+11=-(7)/(9)(x-18)\\y=-(7)/(9)(x-18)-11\\y=-(7)/(9)x+(-(7)/(9))(-18)-11\\y=-(7)/(9)x+14-11\\y=-(7)/(9)x+3

Comparing with the slope-intercept form y=mx+c

Slope =
-(7)/(9)

y-intercept =3

Therefore, the two functions has the same slope and the same y-intercept.

The correct option is A
