Answer:
D. y = -1/3x
Step-by-step explanation:
The line through the origin means the equation will be a proportion of the form y = kx. (You can also see this by looking at the answer choices.) The value of k is ...
k = y/x . . . . . divide the above equation by x
For the given point (x, y) = (-3, 1), the value of k can be seen to be ...
k = 1/-3 = -1/3
Then the equation for the line is ...
y = -1/3x . . . . matches D
