Answer:

Equation of the line is y = 5x

Explanation:

Given Points of the line are ( 2 , 10 ) and ( 0 , 0 )

We need to find the equation of the line.

Since we given with two point. We use Two-Point form of the line.


y-y_1=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)(x-x_1)

So, using this form we get


y-0=(10-0)/(2-0)(x-0)


y=(10)/(2)x


y=5x

OR


y-10=(0-10)/(0-2)(x-2)


y-10=(-10)/(-2)(x-2)


y-10=5(x-2)


y=5(x-2)+10

Therefore, Equation of the line is y = 5x
