The Slope-Intercept form of the equation of a line is:


y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope of the line and "b" is the y-intercept.

When the line passes through the Origin, its equation has this form:


y=mx

Where "m" is the slope of the line.

Based on the explained above, you can identify that the following are Equations of lines:

a.


y=1+3x

Where:


\begin{gathered} m=3 \\ b=1 \end{gathered}

c.


y=-5x

Where:


m=-5

d.


h=s+1

Where:


\begin{gathered} m=1 \\ b=1 \end{gathered}

The answer is:

Option a

Option c

Option d
