Answer to Problem 45STP
A linear function that best describes the graph is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The graph,
Here,
It can be seen that the graph moves down as
Hence, the function is decreasing.
To be precise,
It implies that,
Thus, the slope must be negative.
It can be clearly seen from the graph that,
for
In other words we can say that y-intercept is
Therefore, a linear function that best describes the graph is
