First of all we can rule out that the slope is 10. The coefficient before the x term is not 10 so the answer is not a.

Following on what I said for option a, option b is correct as the coefficient before the x term is -7/8. Therefore the answer is B.

The answer is not C as when x = 0, y is not 0. This means the line does not pass through the origin (0,0)

Option D is not true aswell. When x = 1, y= 9.125. When x= 2, y= 8.25. When x=3, y= 7.375. X is increasing whereas y is decreasing. Therefore option D is ruled out.

The answer is option B.

I hope this has helped you.
