D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both have a slope or "rate of change" of 1/2 because going from (0,5)-->(2,6) on the first one you go right 2 units and up 1 and slope is rise over run or y/x values in this case it would be 1/2 and on the bottom function you can see it goes from (0,-2)-->(4,0) and this goes right 4 units and up 2 units same principal applies you get 2/4 which is equal to 1/2 also it being negative or not doesn't change whether the two functions have the same rate of change.

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.
