Answer 2

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is looking for an equation in slope-intercept form which is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept is +4, which all of the answers show, so you must find the slope.

The slope is the change in y over change in x, more commonly referred to as rise over run. So count how many units the graph changes vertically and horizontally, in this case, 1 up and 2 right, so the slope is equal to 1/2. If you have a graph where the line shifts up and left, or down and right, then the slope is negative. Additionally, one way to visually check your work is to remember slopes equal to less than -1 or greater than +1 will be steeper while fraction slopes will make the slope flatter; basically the closer to zero the less steep.
