Which graph represents a negative linear association between x and y? graph a graph b graph c graph d

First, only graph's a and b are linear, meaning the change in each step is the same. This eliminates graphs c and d, which are both exponential.
Next, we need to determine which graph is a negative relationship. In a negative relationship, small values of x mean large values of y and large values of x mean small values of y; this also means the slope is negative. This means graph b has all the properties we're searching for.

1. isolate the variable, in this case, d. subtract 35.5 on both sides of the equation.2. 52 subtracted by 35.5 is 16.53. therefore your answer would be d= 16.5this is the basics of pre algebra, isolating variable through adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing, if you have any other questions to ask just comment!
