Which linear function has the same slope as the one that is represented by the table?

A. y = -1/2 x+1/10

B. y = -1/5 x+ 1/2

C. y = 1/5 x -1/2

D. y = 1/2 x- 1/10

Answer 1

b

Explanation:

Answer 2

The answer is B. y = -1/5x +1/2.

EXPLANATION

First solve for the slope:

`m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) \\ m = (0 - (3)/(5) )/( (1)/(2) - (1)/(5) ) \\ m = - (1)/(5)`
After finding the slope, look for the linear equation with the same value of m (parallel equation).
