Answer:

We have been given the four functions

f(x) from two points (-2,2) and (-1,-1)

Using two point formula which is:

[tex]y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)[/tex]

[tex]y-2=\frac{-1-2}{-1+2}(x-(-2)[/tex]

On simplification we get:

[tex]y=-4-3x[/tex]

[tex]f(x)=-4-3x[/tex]

g(x) is given:

[tex]g(x)=3x-4[/tex]

Now, for h(x) we have information Kelly had 4 apples in her kitchen that is 4x

And one was left on tuesday

So, [tex]h(x)=4x-3[/tex]

And for j(x) we have been given points:

(-2,-2),(2,10),(6,22)

So, again using the two point slope form to get the function:

[tex]y+2=\frac{10+2}{2+2}(x+2)[/tex]

On simplification we will get:

[tex]y=4+3x[/tex]

[tex]j(x)=4+3x[/tex]

We need to tell the slope and y-intercept

For slope we compare the function with the general equation of line which is y=mx+c; m is slope

And for y-intercept put x=0 in the function.

For f(x)=-4-3x

slope is: -3

And y-intercept is: (0,-4)

For g(x)=3x-4

slope is: 3

And y-intercept is: (0,-4)

For h(x)=4x-3

Slope is: 4

And y-intercept is: (0,-3)

For j(x)=4+3x

Slope is: 3

And y-intercept is: (0,4)

Answer:

We have four functions:

For f(x) we have two points (-2,2) and (-1,-1)

we will use two point form which is:

So, on substituting the values we get:

So, f(x)=-3x-4

We have g(x)=3x-4

Now, we will from h(x) we have two points  let initial point on monday is (0,4) and tuesday (1,1) again use two point form we get:

So, h(x)= -3x+4

Now, we will form j(x) we have three points (2,10) , (-2,6) and (2,22)

We will use (-2,6) and (2,22)  to find the function with two point form.

j(x)= 4x+14

To find the slope we will compare the given function with general equation which is y= mx +c; m is the slope

And to find y-intercept we will put x=0

f(x)=-3x-4

Slope is: -3

And y-intercept is: (0,-4)

g(x)=3x-4

Slope is: 3

And y-intercept is: (0,-4)

h(x)= -3x+4

Slope is: -3

And y-intercept is: (0,4)

j(x)= 4x+14

Slope is: 4

And y-intercept is: (0,14)
