Question

If the slope equal 4/3 and the y intercept is zero. What would be the equation?

Answer 1

The equation of a line in its slope-intercept form is

`\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ \text{ Where m is the slope of the line and} \\ b\text{ is the y-intercept} \end{gathered}`

So, in this case, you have

`\begin{gathered} m=(4)/(3) \\ b=0 \end{gathered}`

Now, you have

`\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ \text{ Replacing} \\ y=(4)/(3)x+0 \\ y=(4)/(3)x \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the equation of the line will be:

`y=(4)/(3)x`
