Which line has a greatest initial value but smaller rate of change line m?

  y = x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial value is the y-intercept, the y-value where the line crosses the y-axis. For line m, it is 1. So, you need an equation for a line that has a constant greater than 1. This eliminates the first and third choices.

The rate of change is the slope, the x-coefficient. For line m, the rise/run is 2/1 = 2. So, you need an equation for a line that has an x-coefficient less than 2. This eliminates the fourth choice.

The only viable choice is the second one:

  y = x + 3

step-by-step explanation:

first you will have to convert 3/4 into a decimal

which is .75

then you will have to divide 1.5 by .75

which is 2

no you have to divide

c - they will have the same distribution

step-by-step explanation:

this is the only one that could make sense. : )
