1. Slope of k is -1/6
2. The y intercept of K is -6
A line with a positive slope must pass through quadrants I and III.
A line with a negative slope must pass through quadrants II and IV.
Statement 1: slope = -1/6
Since its slope is negative, line k must pass through quadrant II.
SUFFICIENT.
Statement 2: y-intercept = -6
If its slope is negative, line k must pass through quadrant II.
If its slope is positive, line k will not pass through quadrant II:
INSUFFICIENT.
The correct answer is
A.
