To determine which function should be graphed to solve the equation given (which is not provided in your question), we need to analyze the options provided.
However, since you did not provide the specific equation you're looking to solve, I can offer guidance on how to select the function based on the equation you have.
-
Identify the Equation: If the equation is in the form of "y = mx + b," where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, the function you will graph should match this form.
-
Compare with Options:
- f(x)=9x+2: This is a linear function with a slope of 9 and y-intercept of 2.
- f(x)=17x−6: This is also a linear function with a slope of 17 and y-intercept of -6.
- f(x)=x−6: This is a linear function with a slope of 1 and y-intercept of -6.
- f(x)=9x−14: This is a linear function with a slope of 9 and y-intercept of -14.

Choose the Right Function: Depending on the structure of your equation, you'll want to select the function that best matches your equation's form or that sets up for finding an intersection point.
If you can provide the specific equation you are trying to solve, I can help you identify the correct function to graph.
