Answer:

d) The function ƒ(x) has a steeper slope than g(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

[tex]f(x)=-2x-7[/tex]

The graph g(x) passing through the point (1.2,0) and  (0,4).

Let

y=f(x)=-2x-7

Slope of function f(x)

[tex]m=\frac{dy}{dx}=-2[/tex]

Slope formula

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Using the formula

Slope of g(x)

[tex]m'=\frac{4-0}{0-1.2}[/tex]

[tex]m'=-3.33[/tex]

Slope of g(x)=-3.33<-2

Slope of f(x) is greater than slope of g(x).

Therefore, function f(x) has a steeper slope than g(x).

Option d) is correct.
