Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

for f(x) slope between points (-1,-6) and (1,0)

m= y2-y1/x2-x1 = -6-0/-1-1 = -6/-2= 3

for g(x) slope m=4 because we compare to equation y=mx+b the given equation g(x)=4x-5

The slope of f(x) is 3 and the slope g(x) is 4 so the line of g(x) is steeper

part B

The y intercept for g(x) is  (0, -5)

The equation of f(x) can be found

y-y1 =m(x-x1) take any point for example point (1,0)

y-1 =3(x-0)

y=3x+1 so the y-intercept is at (0,1)

The y-intercept for f(x) is greater at y=1 then the one of g(x) at y=-5
