You can also graph the functions to compare them. Go to your math tools and open the Graph tool to graph the two linear functions. To create a graph, select the linear relationship and then enter values for the variables. Paste a screenshot of the two functions in the space provided. How could you find which puppy had the greater initial weight from the graph? How could you find which puppy gained weight the slowest? Introduction
Olivia, Amit, and Camille recently got puppies. They recorded the weights of their puppies every week for the first 10 weeks they had the puppies. Olivia used a table, and Amit and Camille used graphs. In this activity, you will use the graphs and the table to compare the weights of the three puppies.
