A graph which represents the linear function y = -2x is: graph B.
<h3>What is a graph?</h3>
In Mathematics, a graph can be defined as a type of chart that is typically used for the graphical representation of data points or ordered pairs on both the horizontal and vertical lines of a cartesian coordinate, which are the x-axis and y-axis respectively.
Generally speaking, the graph of any proportional relationship is characterized by a straight line with the data points passing through the origin (0, 0) because as the values on the x-axis (x-coordinate) either increases or decreases, the values on the y-axis (y-coordinate) increases or decreases simultaneously.
In this context, we can reasonably infer and logically deduce that the relationship between x-values and y-values in the graph of y = -2x is proportional as it passes through the origin (0, 0).

#SPJ1
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x - 4 = - 2 ( add 4 to both sides )
x = 2 ( multiply both sides by 6 to clear the fraction )
5x = 12 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x =
= 2
→ A
Substitute each value until the answer is correct
a. 1 = -4 x -5 -1
1 does not equal 19
b. 15 = -4 x 4 -1
15 does not equal -17
c. -5 = -4 x 1 -1
-5 equals -5
just to make sure the last answer is incorrect
d. -7 = -4 x 2 -1
-7 does not equal -9
Answer:
Strong negative correlation
Step-by-step explanation:
n the scatter plot attached below, as the variable in the x-axis increases, the variable on the y-axis decreases. Thus, if a line of best fit is drawn, it would show a line that slopes downwards to our right. This shows a negative correlation between both variables in the scatter plot.
Also, we also see that the data points represented on the scatter plot are clustered more closely along the slope, showing strong negative correlation.
Therefore, the phrase that best describes the scatter plot is: strong negative correlation.
The answers will be -5,-1,-1 and 1
