Choose the equation that represents the graph below.


y = −2x − 6

y = two thirdsx + 6

y = negative two thirdsx + 6 y = 2x + 6

The equation is y = -2/3x + 6

Answer:

c. \(y=-\frac{2}{3}x+6\)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to choose that equation which represents the given graph.

From given graph , the graph cut the y- axis at point (0,6) and cut the x- axis (9,0).

a.\(y=-2x-6\)

Substitute x=0 then we get

y=-6

But we have y-intercept y=6

Therefore, this equation does not represents the given graph.

b. \(y=\frac{2}{3}x+6\)

Substitute  y=0 then, we get

\(\frac{2}{3}x+6=0\)

\(\frac{2}{3}x=-6\)

\(x=\frac{-6\times 3}{2}=-9\)

The x- intercept =-9

But , we have x=9

Therefore, it is false.

c. \(y=-\frac{2}{3}x+6\)

Substitute x=0 then we get

y=6

Substitute y=0

Then, we get

\(-\frac{2}{3}x+6=0\)

\(\frac{2}{3}x=6\)

\(x=\frac{6\times 3}{2}=9\)

Hence, the line passing through the point (9,0) and (0,6) .Therefore, it represents the given graph.

Answer:c. \(y=-\frac{2}{3}x+6\)
