Comparing Linear Function’s Graph and Equations – Example 1:
(y=4x+1)
Solution: First, find the slope (m) of function (A). Find the change in (y) and the change in (x) points ((-1, 0)) and ((0, 2)) on the line: (m=frac{change in y}{change in x}: frac{0-2}{-1-0}=2). Now, find the slope of function (B). The equation of function (B) in the slope-intercept form is (y=4x+1). Therefore, its slope is equal to (4). In the final step, compare the slopes. The slope of function (B) is (4) and is greater than the slope of function (A(2)).
