Compare Two Functions by Analyzing an Equation and a Graph

Learn how to compare equations and graphs to analyze functions. Understand that a graph is a visual representation of a function relation, while an equation is an algebraic representation. This video emphasizes the importance of understanding the rate of change and the y-intercept in both equations and graphs to ensure they match. By comparing examples of recycling programs in California and Michigan, the teacher demonstrates how to identify one-to-one functions and determine the rate of change.
