Answer 1

To accurately determine how the graph shows the change from Line W to Line X, we need to analyze the slopes of both lines.

• If both lines change from a positive slope to a negative slope and the magnitude of the slope changes by a factor of 3, then the correct response would be: "There is a slope change from positive to negative and by a factor of 3."

• If the slope changes from negative to positive with a magnitude change of 3, then the correct response would be: "There is a slope change from negative to positive and by a factor of 3."

• If the slope changes but doesn't involve a factor change, then the statement would be "There is a slope change from positive to negative and no factor change" or "There is a slope change from negative to positive and no factor change," depending on the direction of the slope change.

Choose the response that best describes the actual changes in slope observed from the graph.
