B is the answer because you are subtracting 2 each time. Arithmetic sequences are either subtraction or addition
When you find the difference to compare two different quantities, it shows what is missing from one that is in the other. for example if you compare 4 and 8 by subtracting 4 from 8, then you know that 8 is 4 more than 4.
You didn’t show the graph so i can’t tell what the numbers are so i can’t figure out the slope or y-intercept
Answer:
y = 1/2x + 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the equation of the line
y - y_1 = m ( x - x_1)
First find the slope of the line
-2x + 4y = 8
It must be in this form
y = mx + C
4y = 8 + 2x
divide through by 4
4y/4 = 8 + 2x / 4
y = 8 + 2x/4
Let's separate
y = 8/4 + 2x/4
y = 2 + 1/2x
y = 1/2x + 2
Therefore, our slope or m is 1/2
Using the equation of the line
y - y_1 = m ( x - x_1)
With point (-5, -1)
x_1 = -5
y_1 = -1
y - (-1) = 1/2(x - (-5)
y + 1 = 1/2( x + 5)
Opening the brackets
y + 1 = x + 5 / 2
y = x + 5/2 - 1
Lcm is 2
y = x + 5 / 2 - 1/1
y = x + 5 -2/2
y = x +3/2
We can still separate it
y = x /2 + 3/2
y = 1/2x + 3/2
The equation of the line is
y = 1/2x + 3/2
The correct answer is A
