Answer:
The correct answer is the first option: A coordinate plane with a straight line with a negative slope passing through
Explanation:
The function with a constant additive rate of change of –1/4 is a straight line with a negative slope. The line passes through the points (negative 2, 2) and (2, 1), which means that for every four units that x increases, the corresponding y value decreases by one unit. This can be represented by the equation
y = (-1/4)x + 3/2.
A curved line passing through (negative 1, 2), (0, negative 1), the minimum
(2, negative 2), and
(4, 1) does not have a constant additive rate of change and cannot be the function in question.
