a. blue (B)
$y=3$
b. $\operatorname{red}(R)$
$y=-\frac{1}{4} x-2$
c. green (G)
d. purple (P)
$y=-x-1$
e. black (K)
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Analyze the equations and the graph
We are given five linear equations and a graph with lines of five different colors. We need to match each equation to the corresponding colored line on the graph.
Step 2: Match y = 3
This equation represents a horizontal line where y is always 3. This corresponds to the black (K) line on the graph.
Step 3: Match y = -x - 1
This equation has a y-intercept of -1 and a slope of -1. This corresponds to the purple (P) line on the graph.
