The equation below represents function a and the graph represents function b: function a f(x) = x − 9 function b (image) which equation best compares the slopes of the two functions? a) slope of function b = 2 x slope of function a. b) slope of function a = slope of function b c) slope of function a = 2 x slope of function b d)slope of function b = − slope of function a

We have the equation for function A. Is is a line, already written in the form . In these cases, the slope of the line is . So, the slope of function A is 1.

As for function B, we have to pick two of its graph's point, say and compute the slope as follows:

We can see that the function passes through the points and [/tex] (1,1) [/tex]. So, its slope is

So, the slope of function A is 1, and the slope of function B is 2.

This means that the first option is correct.
