i'd rather spend 2 min extra to explain then give out direct answer.

anonymous · Answer

Ok.. then explain it. I just looked at the picture and it was less than 1 and the line was going down so I chose B.

abdullah1995 · Answer

take two points on the line that are easy to read.
e.g (0,0) and (4,-1)

find the slope. once you find the slope look at the options which has the right slope.
if there are more than one answers which have the same slopes then take a point and plug it into the equation y=mx+b along with m value to find b. then see which is the right answer

god dang @abdullah1995 . I said B, because I started at the origin and count 1 DOWN (-) and counted 4 to the right, so therefore it's $$-\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }$$
