Answer:

CB / BA = ED / DC

Step-by-step explanation:

The rise is the distance in the y-axis or the distance that the graph ups, so there are two rises in the graph, CB and ED.

The run is the distance on the x-axis, so there are two runs in the graph, BA, and DC.

Then, the proportion of rise/run is constant so:


\begin{gathered} \frac{Rise\text{ 1}}{\text{Run 1}}=\frac{Rise\text{ 2}}{\text{Run 2}} \\ (CB)/(BA)=(ED)/(DC) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is :

CB / BA = ED / DC
