Timmy writes the equation f(x) = f(x) equals StartFraction one-fourth EndFraction x minus 1.x – 1. He then doubles both of the terms on the right side to create the equation g(x) = g(x) equals StartFraction one-half EndFraction x minus 2.x – 2. How does the graph of g(x) compare to the graph of f(x)? The line of g(x) is steeper and has a higher y-intercept. The line of g(x) is less steep and has a lower y-intercept. The line of g(x) is steeper and has a lower y-intercept. The line of g(x) is less steep and has a higher y-intercept.

Respuesta :

Answer:

the line of g(x) is steeper and has lower y intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=1/4x-1

g(x)=1/2x-2

g(x) is steeper because the slope of gx is greater than f(x)

y intercept of gx=-2 and for f(x)=-1

the y intercept of g(x) is lower than the y intercept of f(x)

The steepness of a function is dependent on its slope.

The true statement is: (c) the line of g(x) is steeper and has lower y intercept

The equations are given as:

[tex]\mathbf{f(x)= \frac 14x-1}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{g(x)=\frac12x - 2}[/tex]

A linear function is represented as:

[tex]\mathbf{y = mx + b}[/tex]

Where:

  • m represents the slope/steep
  • b represents the y-intercept

For f(x)

[tex]\mathbf{m_1 = \frac{1}4}\\\mathbf{b = -1}[/tex]

For g(x)

[tex]\mathbf{m_1 = \frac{1}2}\\\mathbf{b = -2}[/tex]

By comparison:

  • Steepness: 1/2 > 1/4
  • y-intercept: -1 > -2

This means that: the line of g(x) is steeper and has lower y intercept

Hence, the true option is: (c)
