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.

A
Only f(x) has an x-intercept.
B
g(x) has the greatest maximum.
C
All three functions have a y-intercept.
D
All three functions have the same range values.
E
All three functions have the same domain values.
4

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

Which statements accurately compare the functions on the graph? Select two options.

A
The square root and quadratic function share a y-intercept.
B
The square root and absolute value function share an x-intercept.
C
The range of the square root and quadratic function are the same.
D
The range of the square root and absolute value function are the same.
E
The quadratic function and the absolute value function have a minimum while the square root function has a maximum.
6

Which function has the greatest x-intercept?

A
f(x) = 3x – 9
B
g(x) = |x + 3|
C
h(x) = 2x – 16
D
j(x) = –5(x – 2)2

The tables show functions representing the growth of two types of bacteria on certain days within an experiment that lasted a total of 10 days.

Question illustration
A
Since x-intercepts indicate the amount of each bacteria at the start of the experiment, there was more of bacteria B than bacteria A at the start.
B
Since y-intercepts indicate the amount of each bacteria at the start of the experiment, there was more of bacteria B than bacteria A at the start.
C
Since the maximum value in the table for bacteria A is greater than the maximum value in the table for bacteria B, bacteria A has a faster growth rate than bacteria B.
D
Since the minimum value in the table for bacteria A is less than the minimum value in the table for bacteria B, bacteria A has a slower growth rate than bacteria B.

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.
