Question

Identify the linear equation that represents the graph.

  1. y = −3x − 2    
  2. y = 3x + 2    
  3. y = −fraction numerator 1 over denominator 3 end fractionx + 2    
  4. y = fraction numerator 1 over denominator 3 end fractionx − 2    

hintHint:

from the given figure we can find the y - intercept ( that is = c, we know )
now we have to find the value of slope (m) to find the linear equation
take two point on the line first will be the y-intercept ( 0,-2) and second is in second quadrant that is (-1,1) you can see in the graph

The correct answer is: y = −3x − 2
