When are two functions considered equal?

• When they have the same slope

• When their x-values satisfy both equations

• When their y-values are the same

• When they are parallel

What is the first step in using a table of values to find when functions are equal?

• Create a table of values for each function

• Graph the functions

• Solve the equations algebraically

• Use random x-values

What is the purpose of creating a table of values for each function?

• To solve for y

• To find the slope

• To calculate the y-intercept

• To determine when the functions are equal

What is an alternative method to find when two functions are equal?

• Guess the answer

• Use a calculator

• Plug in easy numbers like 0

• Use complex numbers

What should you do if the easy number doesn't satisfy both equations?

• Try the next easiest number

• Use a different method

• Give up

• Change the equations

What should you do if the functions do not work out to the same number?

• Repeat the steps with the next easiest number

• Use a calculator

• Try a different method

• Give up

How can you visually determine when two functions are equal?

• When they have the same y-intercept

• When they intersect on the graph

• When they are parallel

• When they have the same x-intercept

What is the significance of the intersection point of two graphs?

• It marks the maximum value

• It shows the minimum value

• It indicates where the functions are equal

• It shows where the functions are parallel
