Answer:

y =
(1)/(2) x

Explanation:

the equation of a line passing through the origin is

y = mx ( m is the slope )

calculate m using the slope formula

m =
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 3) ← 2 points on the line

m =
(3-0)/(6-0) =
(3)/(6) =
(1)/(2)

y =
(1)/(2) x ← equation of line
