What is the equation of the following line? Be sure to scroll down first to see
all answer options.

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line passing through the origin is
y = mx ( m is the slope )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, 1) ← 2 points on the line
m = [tex]\frac{1-0}{-3-0}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
y = - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] x ← equation of line
