Answer:

The second graph

Explanation:

The general function is f(x) = mx + c

  • m is slope
  • c is y-intercept


{ \tt{m = (8 - 4)/(4 - 2) = (4)/(2) }} \\ \\ { \underline{ \tt{ \: m = 2 \: }}}

For y-intercept:


{ \tt{f(x) = mx + c}}

consider point (2, 4)


{ \tt{4 = (2 * 2) + c }} \\ { \tt{c = 0}}

Function:


{ \boxed{ \tt{f(x) = 2x}}}
