which linear function has a negative slope, f(x) or g(x)?

Answer:
f(x) is negative and g(x) is positive
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4-x
Rewriting
f(x) = -x+4
We recognize this as
y= mx+b or the representation of a line with slope -1 and y intercept 4
f(x) is linear
g(x) as we increase x by 1 we increase g(x) by 2
The slope is 2, and the y intercept is 1
y = 2x+1
Lets check a point
(2,5)
5 = 2(2)+1
5=5 so we are correct
f(x) is negative and g(x) is positive
Answer:
f(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = -x + 4
Slope of f(x): -1 (negative)
Slope of g(x):
Slope: (-1 - -3)/(-1 - -2)
Slope = 2/1 = 2 (positive)
