This lesson focuses on comparing functions represented as tables and equations. It covers identifying slopes and y-intercepts, and how these properties affect the relationship between functions. Two examples are provided: one comparing subscription costs for music downloads and another comparing book purchase costs online versus in-store. The lesson concludes with a discussion on determining the better value based on the number of items purchased.

What is the main goal of lesson 6.3?

• To understand the concept of limits

• To compare and contrast properties of two related functions represented as a table or equation

• To learn how to solve quadratic equations

• To study the properties of geometric shapes
