Work out the equation of a straight line

Y = 2x + 3
Y = 2x – 5
Y=2
Y = 4x
Y = 5x – 4
Y = -4x + 9
Y = -3x – 2
Y = ¾x - ½
1) 2) 1 y = 3x + 2

2 y = 3x + 3

3) 4)
3 y = 2x + 4

4 y = 2x + 1

5) 6)
5 y = 4x + 4

6 y = 3x + 4
Work out the equation of a straight line

y = -x y=x-1
A: x = -4
B: x = 4
C: y = 3
D: y = -1

y = -x + 2
y=x-3
  y=x+2
