Yes choice D is the correct answer. Nice job.

If you wanted, you can simplify the linear approximation L(x) 
L(x) = f(a) + (x-a)*f'(a)
L(x) = f(-0.5) + (x-(-0.5))*f'(-0.5)
L(x) = 2 + (x+0.5)*4
L(x) = 2+4x+2
L(x) = 4x+4

Then plug in x = 0
L(x) = 4x+4
L(0) = 4(0)+4
L(0) = 4

But your method is a shorter route.

  C) 9.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Slope is the ratio of rise to run, so is ...

  slope = rise/run = (1 in)/(20 in)

  slope = 1/20

__

B) The maximum height is 1/20 of the horizontal distance, so ...

  H = (1/20)x

__

C) Using x=190 in the above formula, ...

  H = (190 in)/20 = 9.5 in

The ramp will reach a height of 9.5 inches.
