Answer:


y = 10x

Explanation:

Finding the slope (m) of the line the following points in the line, (0, 0) and (2, 20):


slope (m) = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1) = (20 - 0)/(2 - 0) = (20)/(2) = 10

y-intercept (b) is 0. The line intercepts the y-axis at 0. Thus, b = 0.

Substitute m = 10 and b = 0 in
y = mx + b

The equation in slope-intercept form for the graph would be:


y = 1x + 0


y = 10x
