<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: D is the correct answer.

  D.    The slope of is 3, and passes through O.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

AB is dilated by a scale factor of 3 to form AB .

Also, the line AB pass through the origin.

So, if AB pass through (0,0) and some point (x,y) then the slope of line AB is:

Slope=\dfrac{y-0}{x-0}\\\\i.e.\\\\Slope=\dfrac{y}{x}=3

( Since, it is given the slope of AB is 3 )

Now , if AB is dilated to A'B' by a scale factor of 3 then

(0,0) → (0,0)

and

(x,y) → (3x,3y)

i.e. (0,0) and (3x,3y) will lie on A'B'.

Hence, the slope of line A'B' is given by:

Slope=\dfrac{3y-0}{3x-0}\\\\i.e.\\\\Slope=\dfrac{3y}{3x}\\\\i.e.\\\\Slope=\dfrac{y}{x}=3

Hence, both have the same slope.

                The answer is :  Option: D

Answer:

y = 5x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - y = -4

5x - 5x - y = -4 - 5x

-y = -5x -4

-y/-1 = -5x/-1 -4/-1

y = 5x + 4
