    • Y = 2/3x - 6

    • Y = -2/3x - 1

    • Y = -2/3x + 4

    • Y = 2/3x + 4

    Correct Answer
    A. Y = 2/3x - 6
  • 3. 

    Given a linear function with a slope of -4/3, how will the graph differ if the slope changed to 4/3?

    • The steepness of the line increases.

    • The slope of the line changes from increasing to decreasing.

    • The slope of the line changes from decreasing to increasing.

    • There is no change in the graph of the line.

    Correct Answer
    A. The slope of the line changes from decreasing to increasing.
    Explanation
    The given linear function has a slope of -4/3, which means that the line is decreasing as it moves from left to right. If the slope changes to 4/3, the line will change from decreasing to increasing as it moves from left to right. This means that the steepness of the line will increase, as it will become steeper in the positive direction. Therefore, the correct answer is "The slope of the line changes from decreasing to increasing."

    • Y = 0.25x + 40.25

    • Y = 0.15x + 40.25

    • Y = 0.15x + 29.75

    • Y = 0.25x + 29.75

    Correct Answer
    A. Y = 0.15x + 29.75

    The line y= 2/5x + 4 is transformed to y = 4/5x + 4.  How does this new rotation affect the graph?

    • The slope decreases; therefore, the line is closer to the y-axis and the steepness increases

    • The slope decreases; therefore, the line is closer to the x-axis and the steepness decreases

    • The slope increases; therefore, the line is closer to the x-axis and the steepness decreases

    • The slope increases; therefore, the line is closer to the y-axis and the steepness increases

    Correct Answer
    A. The slope increases; therefore, the line is closer to the y-axis and the steepness increases
    Explanation
    When the slope of a line increases, it becomes steeper. In this case, the slope changes from 2/5 to 4/5, which means it increases. As a result, the line becomes closer to the y-axis and its steepness increases.

    • The slope would increase.

    • The y-intercept would increase.

    • The slope and y-intercept would decrease.

    • The slope and y-intercept would stay the same.

    Correct Answer
    A. The y-intercept would increase.
  • 9. 

    Determine the slope of the line 6x + 3y = 6.  As the x-value increases, how would you describe movement along the line?

    • 1 unit to the right, 2 units down

    • 1 unit to the left, 2 units down

    • 2 units to the left, 1 unit down

    • 2 units to the right, 1 unit up

    Correct Answer
    A. 1 unit to the right, 2 units down
    Explanation
    The given equation can be rewritten in the slope-intercept form as y = -2x + 2. This means that for every 1 unit increase in the x-value, the y-value decreases by 2 units. Therefore, as the x-value increases, movement along the line can be described as 1 unit to the right and 2 units down.

    The function f(x) = -2/3x + 2 can be formed by shifting the function y = -2/3x in which way?

    • Vertical shift up 2

    • Reflection over the x-axis

    • Vertical shift down 2

    • Horizontal shift to the left 2

    Correct Answer
    A. Vertical shift up 2
    Explanation
    The function f(x) = -2/3x + 2 can be formed by shifting the function y = -2/3x vertically up by 2 units. This is because the constant term +2 in the function f(x) causes the graph to shift upwards by 2 units compared to the original function y = -2/3x.
