Polygon mnopq is dilated by a scale factor of 0.8 with the origin as the center of dilation, resulting in the image m′n′o′p′q′. the coordinates of point m are (2, 4), and the coordinates of point n are (3, 5). the slope of is .

The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x): x f(x) −1 −5 0 −1 1 3 g(x) g(x) = 2x − 7 part a: write a sentence to compare the slope of the two functions and show the steps you used to determine the slope of f(x) and g(x). (6 points) part b: which function has a greater y-intercept? justify your answer. (4 points)
