6. Prove that linear functions grow by equal differences over equal intervals. Part I. This is the graph of . Use the graph to show that equal intervals of x-values have equal differences of y-values. a) Think about an interval on the x-axis starting with p and ending with p + k. What is the difference between the x-values? What is the difference between the y-values for these x-values? Complete the tables using . Interval between p = 2 and p + k = 6 Difference x-value 2 6 4 y-value –2 Interval between p = 10 and p + k = 14 Difference x-value 10 14 y-value b) The difference in the x-values for each interval is . This value is constant because difference = (p + k) – p = . c) The difference in the y-values for each interval is . This value is also constant because \begin{aligned} \text{difference } &= -\frac{1}{2}(p + k) + 10 - (-\frac{1}{2}p + 10) \\ &= -\frac{1}{2}p - \frac{1}{2}k + 10 + \frac{1}{2}p - 10 \\ &= -\frac{1}{2}k \end{aligned} difference =− 2 1 (p+k)+10−(− 2 1 p+10) =− 2 1 p− 2 1 k+10+ 2 1 p−10 =− 2 1 k d) Does your answer in part c depend on p? If not, what does it depend on? Part II. Use a similar method to prove that for any linear equation, y = mx + b, equal intervals result in growth by equal differences. Step 1: If the equal interval length is k, the two endpoints of the interval will be labeled p and p + k. Label the endpoints of the corresponding interval on the y-axis of the graph below. Hint: First, substitute x = p into y = mx + b. Next, substitute x = p + k into y = mx + b. Step 2: Find the difference between the endpoints of the interval on the y-axis. (1) (2) [y-value at x = p] – [y-value at x = p + k] Step 3: Interpret your answer from Step 2 to prove that linear functions always grow by equal differences over equal intervals. Hint: Use these questions to justify your Does your answer to Step 2 depend on p? What does it depend on? Is the difference between the y-values the same regardless of where the inter

Amajor grocery store chain is trying to cut down on waste. currently, they get peaches from two different distributors, whole fruits and green grocer. out of a two large shipments, the manager randomly selects items from both suppliers and counts the number of items that are not sell-able due to bruising, disease or other problems. she then makes a confidence interval. is there a significant difference in the quality of the peaches between the two distributors? 95% ci for pw-pg: (0.064, 0.156)
