Which statement correctly compares the function shown on this graph with the function y = 5x + 5?

A. The function on the graph has the same rate of change but a lower starting point

B. The function on the graph has a smaller rate of change

C. The function on the graph has the same rate of change but a higher starting point

D. The function shown on the graph has a smaller rate of change and a lower starting point

Let

E> the point that divides the line segment CD into a ratio of

Ey>The y coordinate of point E

Dy> the y coordinate of point D

CDy> distance from point C to D in the y coordinate

CEy> distance from point C to E in the y coordinate

EDy> distance from point E to D in the y coordinate

we have that

Step

Find the distance CD in the y coordinate

we know that

---> equation

--> equation

equate equation and equation

Find the y coordinate of point E

therefore

the answer is the option A
