\n" );
document.write( "A frog leaps from a 1-foot high stump by a pond to land on a lily pad. When he leaps, an equation that describes his height above the pond is f(x)= -0.25x+0.75x+1, with x representing the horizontal distance from the base of the stump (directly beneath the frog). The measurements for x and are in feet. Remember that this is a mathematical frog and stump, so you do not have to take in consideration the space that each occupies.

document.write( "1. What common curve would the graph of this equation be? What are the (x, y) coordinates of the frog’s initial position?
