Question

Find the equation of the lien shown.

Answer 1

Answer:

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line passing through the origin is

y = mx ( m is the slope )

calculate m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 3) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{3-0}{6-0}$ = $\frac{3}{6}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x ← equation of line
