What is an equation of the line whose graph is shown A y x B y 2x C y x D y 2 class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

C

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 = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 1)

m = [tex]\frac{1+1}{1+1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{2}[/tex] = 1, thus

y = x ← equation of line
