Question

Which of the following equations best represents the relationship between x and y?

Answer 1

The red dot is the center. The pink is how, long/many boxes.. it is/are there..for the arrow line to reach the point where the other likes meet. Vertical lines are Y and Horizontal lines are X. In fractions. Y is over X always. So if the arrow is going up or down then the # of boxes you count going up is your Y. In this case.. the Y is 2. Because it only takes two boxes going up until the arrow reach this the corner of of the boxes. And X is 1 because it only takes one box to the left to get to the corner. Basically it is 2/1 (2 over 1) but since 1 is the denominator then the number on top (2) is a whole #. That is why the answer to your question is 2x

Answer 2

A (y=-2x)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, we can see that the slope is negative, meaning that we can eliminate two of the answers given to us. Now, looking at the graph, we can see that the line passes (1,2) and (2,4). Find the slope: rise over run. rise is Y or 2 over run, X, 1. 2/1 is 2 (plus the negative sign)
