Question

Select the correct equation for the line given below.

• A. $y=5-0.5x$
• B. $y=-5-0.5x$
• C. $y=-5+5x$
• D. $y=5+0.5x$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $y=5-0.5x$

From the graph,
As the line intersects the y-axis above x-axis, y-intersect is positive.

We can also see that $y$ decreases as $x$ increases, which means the line has a negative slope.

So, the possible equation for the line is $y=5-0.5x$.
