C:

Question 8

Which linear function has the steepest slope?

Revolt · Accepted Answer

D:

Question 9

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

Revolt · Accepted Answer

B: Both functions have the same slope.; C: The origin is the y-intercept for the function expressed in the table.; E: The table and the graph express an equivalent function.

Question 10

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

Revolt · Accepted 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.
