Answer:
 C  3
Step-by-step explanation:
The first function is given in slope-intercept form:
 y = mx + b
When we compare this to the given equation, we see the y-intercept is 4.
__
The table represents a function with a slope of ...
 m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) = (32 -17)/(5 -2) = 15/3 = 5
Then the y-intercept can be found from ...
 b = y1 -m(x1)
 b = 17 -5(2) = 7
The table is a function with a y-intercept of 7.
__
The difference between the y-intercepts of the two functions is ...
 7 - 4 = 3 . . . difference of y-intercepts
