Answer:

y = 5x

Explanation:

1. The slope-intercept form of any linear equation is
y = mx + b, where y = y-coordinate, m = slope, x = x-coordinate, and b = y-intercept.

2. To find the slope, let's take the two points (0,0) and (100,500) to then plug their values in this formula:
(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)


  • (500-0)/(100-0)

  • (500)/(100)

  • 5

3. Okay, great! Now that we have our slope, the equation, so far, looks like this: y = 5x + b.

4. Because b is the y-intercept, b will equal 0 because the line intersects with the y-axis at the coordinate (0,0).

Therefore, our equation is y = 5x.
