The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x).. . Table:. x f(x). 0 30. 1 32. 2 34. . Equation:. g(x). g(x)=8x-25. . Part 1. Write a sentence to compare the slope of the two functions and show the steps you used to determine the slope of f(x) and g(x).. . Part 2. Which function has a great y-intercept?. . Please help!

x   f(x)
0   30
1   32
2   32

g(x) = 8x - 25

y = mx + b  ⇒ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

30 = m(0) + b 
b = 30

32 = m(1) + 30
32 - 30 = m
2 = m

The y-intercept of the following equations are:
f(x) = 30
g(x) = -25

The slope of the following equations are:
f(x) = 2
g(x) = 8

f(x) has a greater intercept than g(x).
