Linear function f(x) = x is graphed on a coordinate plane. The graph of a new line is formed by changing the slope of the original line to ²/₃ and the y-intercept to 4. Which statement about the relationship between these two graphs is true?

• The graph of the new line is steeper than the graph of the original line, and the y-intercept has been translated down.

• The graph of the new line is less steep than the graph of the original line, and the y-intercept has been translated up.

• The graph of the new line is steeper than the graph of the original line, and the y-intercept has been translated up.

• The graph of the new line is less steep than the graph of the original line, and the y-intercept has been translated down.

What is the y-intercept of the line graphed on the grid?

• 5.5

• 7.5

• ^{- 4}/₃

• - ⁸/₆

Which statement about

k(x) = -x² - 2x + 15 is true?

• The zeros are -3 and 5, because k(x) = -(x + 3)(x - 5).

• The zeros are -5 and 3, because k(x) = -(x + 5)(x - 3).

• The zeros are -5 and -3, because k(x) = -(x + 5)(x + 3).

• The zeros are 3 and 5, because k(x) = -(x - 3)(x - 5).
