Employees at a manufacturing plant have seen production rates change by approximately 105% annually. In contrast, the graph shows the change in the average annual wages of the employees.

Question illustration
A
The annual changes cannot be compared because the initial production value is unknown.
B
The annual change in production has exceeded the annual change in the average salary.
C
The annual change in production increases at a slower rate, 5% per year, than the annual increase in the average salary, $500 per year.
D
The annual change in production increases at a slower rate, 105% per year, than the annual increase in average salary, $500 per year.

The tables show linear functions representing the estimated time it takes for the math and language arts portions of standardized tests with different numbers of questions.

Question illustration
A
The math function has the greater slope, which shows that the estimated time per question for math is less than the estimated time per question for language arts.
B
The math function has the greater slope, which shows that the estimated time per question for math is greater than the estimated time per question for language arts.
C
The language arts function has the greater slope, which shows that the estimated time per question for language arts is less than the estimated time per question for math.
D
The language arts function has the greater slope, which shows that the estimated time per question for language arts is greater than the estimated time per question for math.

7

Which statements comparing the functions are true? Select three options.

A
Only f(x) and h(x) have y-intercepts.
B
Only f(x) and h(x) have x-intercepts.
C
The minimum of h(x) is less than the other minimums.
D
The range of h(x) has more values than the other ranges.
E
The maximum of g(x) is greater than the other maximums.
8

Consider the functions.

Question illustration
A
The minimums of g(x) and h(x) are both in the first quadrant.
B
The minimums of g(x) and h(x) are both in the third quadrant.
C
The minimum of h(x) is farther right and up from the minimums of f(x) and g(x).
D
The minimum of h(x) is farther left and down from the minimums of f(x) and g(x).
9

Two different functions are represented.

Question illustration
A
Neither function A nor function B has an x-intercept.
B
Neither function A nor function B has a y-intercept.
C
The domain and range of both functions contain only positive numbers.
D
The domain and range of both functions contain only positive numbers and zero.
10

Two different functions are shown.Function A:Function B:

Question illustration
A
The x-intercept in function B is one-third as large as the x-intercept in function A.
B
The x-intercept in function B is three times as large as the x-intercept in function A.
C
The distance between the x-intercepts in function A is half the distance between the x-intercepts of function B.
D
The distance between the x-intercepts in function A is twice the distance between the x-intercepts of function B.
