The table represents the function f(x).
Which function of t has the same slope and y-intercept as
f(t) = t + 4
f(t) = t – 6
f(t) = 2t + 4
f(t) = 2t + 6

Answer:

f(t) = 2/3 t + 4



Step 1

Find the slope of the function f(x)

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

Let

[tex]A(-6,0)\\B(0,4)[/tex]

substitute

[tex]m=\frac{4-0}{0+6}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{4}{6}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step 2

Find the y-intercept of the function f(x)

The y-intercept is the value of the function when the value of x is equal to zero

in this problem the y-intercept of the function is the point [tex]B(0,4)[/tex]

so

the y-intercept is equal to [tex]4[/tex]

Step 3

Verify each case  

we know that

the equation of the line into slope-intercept form is equal to

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

case A) [tex]f(t)=t+4[/tex]

In this case we have

[tex]m=1\\y-intercept=4[/tex]

therefore

the function of case A) does not have the same slope as the function f(x)

case B) [tex]f(t)=t-6[/tex]

In this case we have

[tex]m=1\\y-intercept=-6[/tex]

therefore

the function of case B) does not have the same slope and y-intercept as the function f(x)

case C) [tex]f(t)=\frac{2}{3}t+4[/tex]

In this case we have

[tex]m=\frac{2}{3}\\y-intercept=4[/tex]

therefore

the function of case C) does have the same slope and y-intercept as the function f(x)

case D) [tex]f(t)=\frac{2}{3}t+6[/tex]

In this case we have

[tex]m=\frac{2}{3}\\y-intercept=6[/tex]

therefore

the function of case D) does not have the same  y-intercept as the function f(x)

therefore

the answer is

[tex]f(t)=\frac{2}{3}t+4[/tex]
