Here are the steps to the answer. Answer: y=x+2
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 5/2
x = 2 1/2
x = 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 1 - (x + 3) = 1
3x - 1 - x - 3 = 1
2x - 1 - 3 = 1
2x - 4 = 1
2x = 1 + 4
2x + 5
2x = 5
x = 5/2 → 2 1/2 → 2.5 ( can be written in any of these forms depending on what you need to do)

The key with these problems is to find which function has the closest y-intercept to the graph, and then try to figure out which one best approximates the slope.
Here are our options:
<span>A. y = x + 4
B. y = 4x + 9
C. y = x + 18
D. y = 3x + 22
Which has the closest approximation of the y-intercept?
The y-intercept is not directly given, but we can assume it is less than 10.
That leaves us with A and B.
Which has the closest approximation of the slope?
The graph, on average, seems to move up about 60 and over about 15.
Slope = rise/run = 60/15 = 4. Although the slope isn't exactly 4, it's much closer to 4 than 1, which is slope for option A.
Therefore, the answer is
B) y= 4x + 9
