Answer:

The slope of f(x) is equal to the slope of g(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

step 1

Find the slope of the function f(x)

we have the points

(0,-1) and (3,1)

substitute in the formula

[tex]m=\frac{1+1}{3-0}[/tex]

[tex]m_1=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

step 2

Find the slope of the function g(x)

take two points of the given table

(0,2) and (3,4)

substitute in the formula

[tex]m=\frac{4-2}{3-0}[/tex]

[tex]m_2=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

step 3

Compare the slopes

[tex]m_1=m_2[/tex]

therefore

The slope of f(x) is equal to the slope of g(x).
