Answer: The equation that represents the graph is y=4x.

Step-by-step explanation: If you plug in just one coordinate in each equation, you will find that these are the following outcomes no matter which coordinate you pick(but I'm picking (2,8) for your view):

y=x , 8=2

y=x , 8=2

y=2x , 8=4

y=4x , 8=8(ONLY CORRECT STATEMENT)
