Sekou sketched the graph shown based on a verbal description. Fill in the blanks to tell what information she was likely given.

The initial value of the function is __
The function has a constant rate of change equal to __

To fill in the blanks based on the graph Sekou sketched, we would need more specific details about the graph itself. However, I can provide general guidance on how to determine the information you need:

  1. The initial value of the function is: This typically refers to the y-intercept of the graph, which is the value of the function when the input (x) is zero. Look for where the graph intersects the y-axis.

  2. The function has a constant rate of change equal to: This refers to the slope of the line, which represents the rate of change of the function. To find this, you would determine how much the y-value changes for a corresponding change in the x-value (rise over run).

If you have the numbers from the graph, you can use those to fill in the blanks. For example:

  • If the initial value (y-intercept) is 5, you would write: "The initial value of the function is 5."
  • If the slope (constant rate of change) is 2, you would write: "The function has a constant rate of change equal to 2."

Please provide any specific details from the graph if available, and I can help further!
