Answer:

C : (4,8)

Explanation:

The equation y = (1/2) x

Or, 2y = x ==> x = 2y
means that, for any value of x, the y value must be one-half that value or, in other words, for any value of y, x must be twice the value of y

A, B and D will satisfy the above equation if you plug in values of x and y given

In C we have x = 4 and y =8 so x = y/2 NOT 2y
