Flag Mike Jimenez is president of the teachers’ union for Preston School District. In preparing for upcoming negotiations, he would like to investigate the salary structure of classroom teachers in the district. He believes there are three factors that affect a teacher’s salary: years of experience, a rating of teaching effectiveness given by the principal, and whether the teacher has a master’s degree. A random sample of 20 teachers resulted in the following data.
Salary Years of experience Principal’s Rating Master’s Degree

Which of the statements about the graph of the function y = 2x are true? check all of the boxes that apply. the domain is all real numbers x because the exponent of 2 can be any real number when the x-values increases by 1 unit, the y-value multiplies by 2. the y-intercept is (0, 1). the graph never goes below the x-axis because powers of 2 are never negative. the range is all real numbers.
