Answer:

y=2/3x

Explanation:

the origin is the point (0,0) and the given slope is 2/3

the equation for slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

the slope is given, meanwhile, the y intercept is the point where the line passes through the y axis, and the x value is 0.

In this question, we actually have the y intercept given, which is (0,0)

we can put it all together then:

y=2/3x+0

or

y=2/3x

Hope this helps :)
