Which of the following statements are true? Select all that apply.

A
If the equation were graphed, it would be a horizontal line.
B
Both functions have the same slope.
C
The origin is the y-intercept for the function expressed in the table.

Explain how to determine if these two are the same function expressed in different ways

Answer:

To determine if two linear representations are the same function, you must identify the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b) for both. For the equation, rewrite it in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b). For the table, calculate the slope using the change in y over the change in x and find the y-intercept where x = 0. If both the slopes and the y-intercepts match, they are the same function.

Select all the information that you included in your response.

A
Determine the slope and y-intercept for the equation.
B
Choose two points from the table and find the slope between them.
C
Use the slope from the table to calculate the y-intercept for the function in the table.
D
Compare the slopes and y-intercepts of the two functions to determine whether it is the same function or two different functions.
