Question

Compare Linear Function 1 with Linear Function 2. Which one has the greater rate of change? Choose 1 for Linear Function 1; choose 2 for Linear Function 2. Linear Function 1: y=x+8 Linear Function 2: (1 point) Linear Function has the greater rate of change.

Answer 1

To compare the rates of change of the two linear functions, we need to identify their slopes.

For Linear Function 1, given by the equation \( y = x + 8 \), the slope (rate of change) is 1.

For Linear Function 2, though the equation is not provided in your message, I will assume it is also in the form \( y = mx + b \), where \( m \) is the slope. To make an accurate comparison, we need the slope of Linear Function 2.

If you provide the equation for Linear Function 2, I can calculate its slope and then compare it to determine which function has the greater rate of change. Please provide that information.
