Answer:

B

Explanation:

4x + 2y = 3

(send 2y to the right and 3 to the left)

4x - 3 = -2y

(divide everything by -2)

(4x)/(-2) - 3/(-2) = y

So now we have a function which is like

y = ax + c

c = the y value of intersection point of the equation and the y-axis

a = amount of increase in y values per x value

so in this example:

(4x/(-2)) = (4/(-2))x -> a = 4/(-2) = -2

and

c = -3/-2 = 3/2

So the graph that we're searching for is increasing (-2) y values (so decreasing 2 y values) per 1 x value and has an intersection with the y-axis where y = 3/2
