Answer:

Explanation:

Our line's equation is;

2y = -8x + 12

Dividing throughout by 2 we get;

y = -4x + 6

The slope of our line = -4

We are to choose a line whose slope is -4 (from those four options)

A slope of -4 means that for every positive 1 move along the x-axis, there is a negative 4 move along the y-axis.

The line that satisfies this condition is the third line.
