Which function represents the graph below?

b) 2x - y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point (0, b) where the graph crosses the y-axis. It is also the value of y when x = 0.

The crosses the y-axis at point (0, 4). Therefore, the y-intercept, b = 4.

Next, we need to determine which of the given options matches the graph.  It helps to transform each of them into their slope-intercept form, y = mx +b:

2x - 2x + y = - 2x + 4

y = -2x + 4  (This is not the correct answer because the slope, m = -2. The given graph has a positive slope).

2x - 2x - y = - 2x - 4

-y = -2x - 4

Divide both sides by -1:

y = 2x + 4 This is the correct answer because it matches the y-intercept (0, 4), and has a positive slope of 2.

We could easily disregard the last two options because both of their y-intercept is 0.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option b) 2x - y = - 4
