Answer:

Explanation:

The functions are written in slope-intercept form.

The graph crosses the y-axis at (0,-2), so the y-intercept is -2.

You can eliminate D because its y-intercept is +2, not -2.

(1,1) and (0,-2) are points on the line.

The slope of the line is (-2-1)/(0-1) = 3

You can eliminate B because its slope is ⅓.

Eliminate C because its slope is -3, not 3.

Answer B
