Linear Functions Intercepts Slope Rate of Change

Determine whether the following functions are increasing or decreasing.

• The function in item I is increasing, and the function in item II is decreasing.

• Both functions are increasing.

• The function in item I is decreasing, and the function in item II is increasing.

• Both functions are decreasing.

Compare the initial values and the rates of change.

• The functions have different initial values and different rates of change.

• The rates of change are the same, but the initial values are different.

• The functions have the same initial value, but the rates of change differ.

• The y-intercepts are the same, but the rates of change differ.
