Answer:

C

Explanation:

So you can use two points on the line to find the gradient. I used K and G. B and D could've been easily eliminated since the line goes through the origin (0,0) so there's no y - intercept or b value.

M = (Y-y)/(X-x)

M = (8-4)/(14-7)

M = 4/7

And the equation of a line is y = mx + b. There's no b so it's just y = (4/7)x
