Question

Which graph represents the equation y equals one half times x plus 2?

Group of answer choices

graph of a line passing through the points negative 2 comma negative 3 and 0 comma negative 2

graph of a line passing through the points negative 4 comma 0 and 0 comma 2

graph of a line passing through the points negative 2 comma 0 and 0 comma 1

Answer 1

The correct choice is: the line passing through (-4, 0) and (0, 2).

Check: y = (1/2)x + 2 gives y(0) = 2, so (0,2) is on the line. For x = -4, y = (1/2)(-4) + 2 = -2 + 2 = 0, so (-4,0) is also on the line. The other choices have wrong y-intercepts.
