A linear function has an x-intercept of 12 and a slope of 3/8. How does this function compare to the linear function that is represented by the table?

Respuesta :

Answer:

We rewrite the statement correctly:

 "A linear function has an y-intercept of 12 and a slope of 3/8"

 Therefore, the linear function is:

 y = (3/8) x + 12

 We look for the linear function of the table:

 y-yo = m (x-xo)

 Where,

 m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

 m = ((- 3/8) - (- 3/4)) / ((1/3) - (- 2/3))

 m = ((- 3/8) - (- 6/8)) / (3/3)

 m = ((- 3 + 6) / 8) / (1)

 m = 3/8

 (xo, yo) = (- 2/3, -3/4)

 Substituting:

 y + 3/4 = (3/8) (x + 2/3)

 y = (3/8) x + 2/8 - 3/4

 y = (3/8) x + 1/4 - 3/4

 y = (3/8) x + -2/4

 y = (3/8) x + -1/2

 The lines are:

 y = (3/8) x + 12

 y = (3/8) x + -1/2
