P iis any convenient point on the line.

OpenStudy (mathmale):

the given line passes through the origin (0,0), which is also the "y-intercept." The simplest equation of a straight line is y=mx + b, where b is the y-intercept. Thus, you have y=mx + 0 = mx. Look at the graph. At this point you should be able to read off the slope of this line by inspection. Hint: slope = rise / run or "change in y" over "change in x." What is the slope, m? What is the equation of this straight line?
