Marion compared the y-intercept of the function f(x) shown in the table below to the y-intercept of the function g(x) graphed below What is the distance between the y-intercept of f(x) and g(x)

difference is 12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

line shown has a y-intercept of -4

now find y-intercept of f(x) by first finding its slope:

(-2,0) and (2,-32)

m = (0+32)/(-2-2)

m = 32/-4

m = -8 (slope)

Now find the y-intercept (or 'b') from substituting into 'y=mx+b':

0 = (-2)(-8) + b

0 = 16 + b

-16 = b (y-intercept)

-16 - (-4) = -12

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
