Choose the equation that satisfies the data in the table.

  which agrees with answer "A" in the list of possible options

Step-by-step explanation:

From the fact that there is a steady rate of increase in the x and in the respective y values (notice that x increases in steps of 1 unit, and at the same time y values increase in steps of "-4" units) the data belongs to the equation of a line.

We can determine that equation using just two pairs of points, like for example (-1, 0) and (0, -4).

We first find the slope using the slope formula for the segment that joints any two points on the plane:

we now write the slope-intercept general form of a line with slope "-4", and solve for the intercept by using the point (0,-4) which should be in the line:

Therefore the equation for this points is:

answer:   segregation violated the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment, which holds that no state can “deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

details/explanation:

brown v. board of education of topeka, decided by the us supreme court in 1954, ruled that all americans are entitled to the same civil liberties and protections in regard to access to education. until that decision, it was legal to segregate schools according to race, so that black students could not attend the same schools as white students.   an older supreme court decision, plessy v. ferguson (1896), had said that separate, segregated public facilities were acceptable as long as the facilities offered were equal in quality.   in the case of brown v. board of education, that standard was challenged and defeated.   segregation was shown to create inequality, and the supreme court unanimously ruled segregation to be unconstitutional.

the ruling was important in advancing civil rights because it affirmed that the 14th amendment applies to all rights and privileges of citizens, including access to   education.   this was being violated by states whose laws supported the segregation of schools.   section 1 of the 14th amendment reads as follows:
