These linear functions are in the form: y = ax + b

Plugging in any value of x will give you the value of y, and vice-versa.

The grid says that when x = 0, y = 1.35. And also, when x = 22.5, y = 0.

So you can eliminate half of the possibilities by plugging x = 0 in all the equations.

When x = 0, y = ax + b is simply y = b. So only A. and B. make sense so far.

When y = 0, y = ax + b is simplifies to 0 = ax + b which simplifies to ax = -b. By plugging x = 22.5, you should be able to deduce which of the answers is right. I can confirm if you'd like
