Question

[PLEASE HELP] in the function above, the slope of it will be multiplied by 1/2 and it’s y value of its y intercept will be increased by 3 units, which of the graphs below best shows the new function???

Answer 1

Answer Y: or Bottom Left of Given Answers

Explanation:

Answer 2

The graph at the bottom left in your group of possible answers.

Explanation:

Notice that the original given graph corresponds to the equation:

`y=2x+1`

since the line's slope is 2/1 = 2 and the y-intercept is at the point (0, 1).

So if one modifies the equation multiplying the current slope by 1/2, and the y intercept increased by 3 units, Then the new function would be:

`y=x+4`

A line of slope 1 and y-intercept at (0, 4)

Notice that the graph at the bottom left in your possible answers is representing such function.
