Question

1.

Match the graph with the correct equation.


A. y + 2 = –(x – 4)

B. y + 2 = –(x +4)

C. y – 2 = –(x – 4)

D. y + 2 = (x –2)

Answer 1

A. y + 2 = –(x – 4)

Explanation:

The first step is to change the equations into y format. y= mx + b.

The y- intercept of this graph is at the point (0,2). Since the line is going down, the slope is negative. Therefore it would be: y+2 = -(x-4)

If changed it would be y= -x + 2.

Hope it help

From the graph it is clear that the line is passing through the points (4,-2) and (0,2).

The slope of the line is

The slope of the line is -1.

The point slope form of a line is

The required equation is y+2=-(x-4), therefore the correct option is 1.
