Answer:

AGEB

(assuming its in the order of the lock colors in the corner of the picture)

Explanation:

Slope Intercept equation: y=mx + b

m : slope, can be found by rise/run

b: y-intercept, where the line intersects with the y axis

Red Line: b: -1, m: rise 3, run 1 (3/1=3)

equation: y = 3x - 1

Orange Line: b: 4, m: rise 1, run 1 (1/1=1)

equation: y = x + 4

Green Line: b: 2, m: rise -2, run 1 (-2/1=-2)

equation: y = -2x + 2

Blue Line: b: 2, m: rise -1, run 2 (-1/2= -1/2)

equation: y = -1/2x + 2

The letters that fits all of the equations are A (red), E (orange), B (green), and G (blue).

If the code goes in order of the colors at the bottom, then it should be AGEB.
