Bill and Jeff each have 100 pennies. Every day, Bill gives Jeff a penny. The number of pennies Jeff has is represented by the function y=x+100. How does the function of the number of pennies Bill has compare to the function of the number of Jeff’s pennies? Bill’s Function: y=100-x Jeff’s Function: y=100+x
