Question 935225: Hi,
Thanks in advance! Never going to understand slope intercept!
For x > 0, which of these statements best describe the graph of y=x25 (25 is meant to be downs as sitting higher but can't figure out how to do this on my keyboard!).
The slope is greater than zero and is decreasing
Greater than zero and increasing
Less than zero and is decreasing
Less than zero and is increasing
none of the above

You give a contradictory and imprecise description. What is the equation?
?
?
---------------------THIS CHOICE OF GIVEN EQUATION.
?

You can look at the text used for those through the See Source or View Source link. Put triple left and triple right curly braces to use as rendering tags.
---OKAY, equation picked----

Another bit of confusion, your use of "slope intercept".

The equation has infinite slopes. Each choice for x is paired with a different slope. Your given conditions for the question are, , and you know the basic shape of the graph. IMAGINE picking a succession of x values in increasing value starting at 0. What happens to the slope at each x value as x values increase? You should either visualize this in your head, or try making sketches on paper. ......
...
You should now have your answer choice.
