Question

Find the increasing functions. Then arrange the increasing functions in order from least to greatest rate of change. (not all of the functions will be used)

y= 5/2x + 10
y= -1/2x + 1/2
y= 3/2x - 11/2
y= 1/2x - 2
y= 4/3x - 7/3
y=3/4x - 10

Answer 1

last box

5th box

3rd box

1st box

Explanation:

Answer 2

to a function is increasing we have to find the slope of the function

the higher the slope the faster the growth

Explanation:

• slope = 5/2. which is 2.5
• slope 2 = -1/2 which is -0.5
• slope 3 = 3/2 which is 1.5
• slope 4 = 1/2 which is 0.5
• slope 5= 4/3 which is 1.33
• slope 6 = 3/4 which is 0.75

so the function in increasing order

y= -1/2x + 1/2

y= 1/2x - 2

y=3/4x - 10

y=4/3x -7/3

y=3/2x-11/2

y=5/2x +10
