What linear function equation is represented by this graph?

ANSWER: 1

x−4 just took the test

Answer 1

The linear function is y = (1/3)x - 4.

Explanation:

The y-intercept is -4. Starting at (0, -4), go up 1 unit and then right 3 units. You will end at (3, -1). So the slope of this line is 1/3, and it follows that the function is

y = (1/3)x - 4.
