Answer: The correct option is (D) [tex]y=4x.[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to select the equation represented by the graph shown.
From the graph, we see a straight line passing through the points (0, 0) and (1, 4).
The slope of a straight line passing through the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by
[tex]m=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}.[/tex]
So, the slope of the graphed line will be
[tex]m=\dfrac{4-0}{1-0}\\\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{4}{1}\\\\\Rightarrow m=4.[/tex]
Since the line passes through the point (0, 0), so its equation will be
[tex]y-0=m(x-0)\\\\\Rightarrow y=4\times x\\\\\Rightarrow y=4x.[/tex]
Thus, the required equation that represents the graphed line is [tex]y=4x.[/tex]
Option (D) is CORRECT.
