The graph of a linear function has a negative slope. Describe the end behavior of this function.
As the value of x increases, the value of y [ A. decreases , B. increases ].
As the value of x decreases, the value of y [ A. decreases , B. increases ].

Answer:

1. A

2. B

Step-by-step explanation:

It would look like y = -m(x) + b.

For example, m is 1 and b is 0. (You can try any random numbers, but I tried to find the simplest one so it's easy for us to see.) The equation will be y= -x. (you can substitute random numbers in here, too)

If x = 3, y = -3 ; x = 5, y = -5  (x increases, y decreases)

If x = -1, y = 1 ; x = -5, y = 5 (x decreases, y increases)

As you can see from the example,

If the value of x increases, the value of y will decrease and vice versa
