Question

5.02 Which equation does the graph below represents?

1. y = -1/2x
2. y = -2x
3. y = 1/2x
4. y = 2x

Answer 1

2. y= -2x

Explanation:

When the line is on an exact point like it is on (-4, 8), we can simplify it by going rise/run

Rise is the same as y (8), and your run is x (-4)

When you divide 8/-4, your answer will be -2

Therefore, the answer is y= -2x

Answer 2

y= 2x because it’s 8/4 which can be divided by 4 and it equals 2x
