The graph represents function 1 and the equation represents function 2: A graph with numbers 0 to 4 on the x-axis and y-axis at increments of 1. A horizontal straight line is drawn joining the ordered pairs 0, 3 and 4, 3.
Function 2
y = 3x + 1

How much more is the rate of change of function 2 than the rate of change of function 1? (5 points)

1
2
3
4

Therefore, the rate of change of function 2 is 3 more than the rate of change of function 1.

Hence, option C is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Function 1

A horizontal straight line is drawn joining the ordered pairs (0, 3) and (4, 3).

Given the points

It means

at x = 0, y = 3

at x = 4, y = 3

Since the y-values are same, it means the points lie on a horizontal.

The rate of change or slope of a horizontal line is zero because it does not rise vertically ( i.e. y₁ - y₂ = 0).

Therefore, the rate of change of function 1 = 0

Function 2

y = 3x+1

comparing with the slope-intercept form

y = mx+b      

here m is the rate of change or slope and b is the y-intercept

so the rate of change of the function 2 = m = 3

Conclusion:

Therefore, the rate of change of function 2 is 3 more than the rate of change of function 1.

Hence, option C is true.

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
