Answer:
C. y = ½x
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1. Find the slope of the line
The general equation for a straight line is
y = mx + b
The slope m is
m =(y₂ -y₁)/(x₂/x₁)
Your points are (-10, -5) and (20, 10).
m = [10 – (-5)]/[20 – (-10)] Remove inner parentheses
m = (10+5)/(20 + 10)
m = 15/30
m = ½
===============
Step 2. Find the equation of the line
Substitute the point (20, 10) into the general equation.
10 = ½×20 + b
10 = 10 + b
b = 0
The equation of the line is y = ½x.
The graph shows your line passing through your two points with a slope
m = ½ and a y-intercept at (0, 0).
