Answer:
Correct answer not shown on the options.
y = -(1/2)+1
Explanation:
Let's find an equation in the format of y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0).
The slope can be calculated as the Rise/Run of the line between the two given points (-6,4) and (-2,2):
Rise = (2 - 4) = -2
Run = (-2 - (-6)) = 4
Slope = Rise/Run = -2/4 or -(1/2)
In fact, the actual full equation is y= -(1/2)x+1 (See attached graph).
None of the options have a slope of -(1/2). Either the information on the two points or the options are incorrect.
