It’s should be D
Because if Y is the midpoint of XZ, it means XY=ZY,
or XY= half of XZ, or ZY= half of XZ.
It can also equal to 2XY=XZ, or 2ZY=XZ.
Y divides XZ into two equal parts.
-- Look at the places where the line crosses the 'x' axis and the 'y' axis.
Between those two points, it goes forward 2 units, but only rises 1 unit.
So the slope of the line is 1/2 .
-- Look again at the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
At that point, y=1 .
That's the "y-intercept".
Now you have the slope and y-intercept of the line.
The equation of ANY straight line is
y = (slope)x + (y-intercept) .
You know what they both are, so you can easily write
y = 1/2 x + 1 .
Is that one of the choices ?
Yes it is.
Good enough for me.
That must be the correct one.
With no "blah blah blah" required.
