A line passes through the origin and has a slope of 1/2.
Which of the following points does the line pass through?
(0, 1/2)
(1/2,1)
(1, 2)
(2,1)​

Respuesta :

Answer: the answer is C. (1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation: because the origin is 0 and slope is rise over run. so if you start at 0, go up one, and over two, your point is at (1,2) .

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

A line will be in the form of y = mx + c

Where m = slope of the line and c = y-intercept

In this question slope of the line is given as [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] and it passes through origin.

Since line passes through origin then there will be no y-intercept that means c=0

So equation will be y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]x

Now check each option that satisfy the equation of the line.

Option A. ( 0, [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] )

                 y = 0 ≠ [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] so invalid option

Option B. ( [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex], 1 )

               y = [tex](\frac{1}{2})[/tex] [tex](\frac{1}{2})[/tex] = [tex](\frac{1}{4})[/tex] ≠ 1 Invalid option

Option C. ( 1,2)

               y = [tex](\frac{1}{2})[/tex] × 1 = [tex](\frac{1}{2})[/tex] ≠ 2 Invalid option

Option D. ( 2, 1 )

              y = [tex](\frac{1}{2})[/tex] × 2 = 1 correct option

Option D. is the correct answer.
