Examine the slope to determine if the equation is increasing or decreasingfx4x3 Answerax52x Answerhxx4 Answerjxfrac12x3 Answernxfrac13x2 Answer class=

Respuesta :

The slope of a increasing function is positive.

The slope of a decreasing function is negative

In a equation of the line in the form:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

The slope is m (the value that is next to the variable x)

For the given functions the next have positive slope (increasing functions):

[tex]\begin{gathered} f(x)=4x+3\text{ (Slope 4)} \\ j(x)=\frac{1}{2}x-3\text{ (Slope 1/2)} \end{gathered}[/tex]

For the given functions the next have negative slope (decreasing functions):

[tex]\begin{gathered} a(x)=5-2x\text{ (Slope -2)} \\ h(x)=-x+4\text{ (Slope -1)} \\ n(x)=-\frac{1}{3}x+2\text{ (Slope -1/3)} \end{gathered}[/tex]
