Consider the linear function that is represented by the equation y = 2 x + 2 and the linear function that is represented by the graph below.

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through points (negative 1, negative 1) and (0, 1).


Which statement is correct regarding their slopes and y-intercepts?
The function that is represented by the equation has a steeper slope and a greater y-intercept.
The function that is represented by the equation has a steeper slope, and the function that is represented by the graph has a greater y-intercept.
The function that is represented by the graph has a steeper slope, and the function that is represented by the equation has a greater y-intercept.
The function that is represented by the graph has a steeper slope and a greater y-intercept.

Answer:I believe the answer is C: The function that is represented by the graph has a steeper slope, and the function that is represented by the equation has a greater y-intercept.

Step-by-step explanation: The Y intercept of the equation is 2 and when I put the 2 graphs side by side the graphs slope looks steeper
