The 2 points closest to the line is (4,12) and (20, 36)


The slope is the change in Y over the change in x:

Slope = (36-12) / (20-4)

Slope = 24 / 16

Slope = 1.5

So now you have y = 1.5x


To find the equation use the formula (y-y1) = m*(x-x1)

y-12 = 1.5(x-4)

Simplify the right side:

y-12 = 1.5x - 6

Add 12 to each side:

y = 1.5x +6


The answer is the 2nd one.
