Consider the function a(x) = -3x + 8 and function b modeled by the graph. Which statement describes the relationship between the intercepts of functions a and b?

A) The x-intercept of b is greater than the x-intercept of a.
B) The y-intercept of b is equal to the y-intercept of a.
C) The x-intercept of b is equal to the x-intercept of a.
D) The y-intercept of b is less than the y-intercept of a.

area of part 1:

a1=base*height/2=(8+2)*(8-2-2-1)/2=10*3/2=15 ft^2

area of part 2:

a2=length*width=(8+2)*1=10 ft2

area of part 3:

a3=length*width=8*2=16 ft2

total shaded area : a1+a2+a3=41 ft2

total area of the reactangle : a=16*8=128 ft2

total area of the nonshaded region : 128-41=87 ft2
