Answer:

A. y = -x + 1

Explanation:

The function can be represented in the slope-intercept form such as y = mx + b

m = slope = change in y/change in x

b = y-intercept = the starting value or the value of y when x is 0.

✔️Find slope (m) using two pair of values from the table, say (0, 1) and (1, 0):

Slope (m) = (0 - 1)/(1 - 0) = -1/1

Slope (m) = -1

✔️ y-intercept (b) = 1 (y = 1 when x is 0)

✔️Write the equation by substituting m = -1 and b = 1 into y = mx + b:

y = -1(x) + (1)

y = -x + 1
