Answer:

x = -1/8 x (Option D)

Explanation:

First find the slope which is rise / run = difference in y values / corresponding difference in x values

= ( 0.5 - (-0.5) / (-4 - 4)

= 1 / -8

= -1/8

Using the point-slope form of the equation of a line

y - y1 = m(x - x1), here we have m = -1/8 and (x1, y1) = ( -4, 0.5) , so:-

y - 0.5 = 1/8(x - (-4)

y - 0.5= -1/8(x + 4)

y = -1/8 x - 0.5 + 0.5

y = -1/8 x (answer)
