a p e x :(

Answer 1

Answer: (f)

Explanation:

Given

Line that passes through
`(-(1)/(2),3)` and
`(0,0)`

Using two point form, equation of a line is given by

`\Rightarrow (y-y_1)/(x-x_1)=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Insert the values

`\Rightarrow (y-0)/(x-0)=(3-0)/(-(1)/(2)-0)\\\\\Rightarrow (y)/(x)=-6\\\\\Rightarrow y=-6x`

Thus, option (f) is correct
