The graph shows a line and two similar triangles. On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (0, 0) and (6, 4). A small triangle has a rise of 2 and run of 3. A larger triangle has a rise of 4 and run of 6.

Which expression finds the equation of the line?
StartFraction y Over x EndFraction = three-halves
StartFraction y Over x EndFraction = two-thirds
StartFraction y Over 2 EndFraction = StartFraction 3 Over x EndFraction
StartFraction y Over 3 EndFraction = StartFraction x Over 2 EndFraction

 Choice B)  

This is the same as saying  y/x = 2/3

Or I suppose you could say "y over x = two-thirds".

===============================================

Explanation:

Recall that slope is rise over run

slope = rise/run

The rise being the change in y, while the run is the change in x.

So we could informally think of it as slope = y/x

-----------

Since we're told that it "has a rise of 2 and run of 3", this means slope = 2/3.

The slope is both y/x and also 2/3.

Equating the two expressions leads us to y/x = 2/3. This is why choice B is the final answer.

Side notes:

4a. is 3 miles every hour

4b. is 1/3 of an hour per mile

step-by-step explanation:

c: y > - 1/6x + 1

step-by-step explanation:

dashed line - meaning this < or > also not equal

solid line - meaning this < or > also equal

your answer is c because y > means up & it's shaded up, but y < means down

hope this ! : )
