Answer: D

Explanation:

In order to have the same slope, in y=mx+b form, the two "m" must be equal.

Step 1 is to find the slope of the graph through two points. I choose the points (0,3) and (4,2)

slope is y2-y1/x2-x1 so 3-2/0-4 = -1/4

Now find which equation has the m of -1/4 and that's your answer

Hint its D.

Answer:

D

Explanation:

First find the slope of the line. The two points I will use are (0, 3) and (4, 2).

(2-3)/(4-0) = -(1/4). In all the equations below, the number/co-efficient before x is the slope of the line. D is the correct answer because you can rearrange the right side of it to get y = -(1/4)x+2. The co-efficient of x is -(1/4) so D is the right answer. Hope this helps! :)
