In order to compare the slopes for the lines we need to find the slope of the function given in the table using the formula:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_{1_{\square}}}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{-6-(-3)}{-4-0} \\ m=-\frac{3}{-4} \\ m=\frac{3}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]then selecting two points for the function graphed we apply the formula and find the slope
points: (0,1) & (3,2)
[tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{2-1}{3-0} \\ m=\frac{1}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]then we know that
[tex]\frac{1}{3}<\frac{3}{4}[/tex]for that reason the slope for the function shown in the table is greater than the slope in the graph.
