$
\begin{equation}
\begin{aligned}

\underline{B } \text{ a) } & \text{Slope } -0.5, b = -2
&& \text{A. } y = - \frac{1}{2}x
\\
\\
\underline{D } \text{ b) } & \text{$x$-intercept } (4,0), \text{ $y$-intercept } (0,2)
&& \text{B. } y = - \frac{1}{2}x - 2
\\
\\
\underline{A} \text{ c) } & \text{Passes through } (4,-2) \text{ and } (0,0)
&& \text{C. } x - 2y = 2
\\
\\
\underline{C } \text{ d) } & m = \frac{1}{2}, \text{ passes through } (-2,-2)
&& \text{D. } x + 2y = 4
\\
\\
\underline{E } \text{ e) } & m = \frac{1}{2}, \text{ passes through the origin}
&& \text{E. } x = 2y
