Question

Which function has the same slope as the function on the graph?

PLEASE I REALLY NEED HELP WITH THIS

A. y = -2x - 4

B. y = -1/2 x - 2

C. y = 1/2 x - 3

D. y = 2x - 6

Answer 1

a. y = -2x -4
the line has a slope of -2.
slope = rise over run
rise = -2 and run = +1
m = -2/1 or -2
a is the only equation with the same slope, it is not asking for the whole equation to be the same so the y-intercept is not needed.

Answer 2

D -2x-6
