Which description best describes the graph A graph is shown A straight line begins at the upper left side of the coordinate plane and moves down towards the rig class=

Respuesta :

This is a linear decreasing graph.

As the x-values increase, the y-values decrease; this means it is a decreasing graph.

The graph shows a straight line with a constant rate of change, so it is linear.

Answer:

B. Linear decreasing

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

The graph of the function is passing through the points (0,3) and (1.5,0).

Then, the rate of change is [tex]m=\frac{0-3}{1.5-0}=\frac{-3}{1.5}=-2[/tex]

So, the function is represented by a straight line with constant rate of change -2.

Thus, the function is a linear function.

Moreover, as the value of x is increasing, we see that the value of y is decreasing.

So, the function is a decreasing function.

Hence, option B is correct.
