Below are two different functions, f(x) and g(x). What can be determined about their slopes? f(x) = 2x + 3 The function g(x) going through 0, −2 and 1, 3

Respuesta :

we are given two functions  f(x) and g(x)

now, we can find slopes

slope of f(x):

we are given

[tex] f(x)=2x+3 [/tex]

now, we can compare it with

[tex] f(x)=mx+b [/tex]

where m is slope

b is y-intercept

we can compare

and we get

[tex] m=2 [/tex]

so, slope is 2

slope of g(x):

we are given two points as

(0,-2) and (1,3)

x1=0 , y1=-2 , x2=1 , y2=3

now, we can use slope formula

[tex] m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} [/tex]

now, we can plug values

[tex] m=\frac{3+2}{1-0} [/tex]

so, we get

[tex] m=5 [/tex]

so, slope is 5..........Answer
