SOLUTION

It is required to find the point slope of of a line with slope=1/11 and passing through the origin.

Note that the coordinates of the origin is (0,0).

Recall the point slope formula:


y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Using the given characteristics the point slope form is:


y-0=(1)/(11)(x-0)

Therefore the required answer is:


y-0=(1)/(11)(x-0)
