Question

What linear equation is not represented by the graph?

Answer 1

D. y = -2x + 4

Explanation:

When setting up the equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), the 'b' variable represents the 'y' value where the line intercepts the y-axis. The 'm' represents the slope, which is the rate of change. If D was the correct answer, then the line would be placed higher up and would have been tilted down more.

Answer 2

D or y=-2x+4

Explanation:

In the graph the y intercept is 2.

In y=-2x+4 they y intercept is 4 so this is not represented by the graph.
