Answer:

y = 5x

Explanation:

you can use the Slope-Intercept form of a line, which is:

y = mx + b where 'm' is the slope, and 'b' is the y-intercept

to find the slope, select any two points:

we can use (0,0) and (2,10)

now subtract the y-values and the x-values to get this fraction:

slope = 10-0 / 2-0

slope = 10/2 or 5/1

the y-intercept can be seen and is 0

therefore, equation of this line is:

y = 5x + 0 or

y = 5x
