Mathematics Question on Various Forms of the Equation of a Line

Find the equation of the line which passes though (0, 0) with slope m.

Answer

We know that the equation of the line passing through point (x0,y0)(x_0,y_0) , whose slope is m, is (yy0)=m(xx0)(y-y_0)=m(x-x_0).
Thus, the equation of the line passing through point (0, 0), whose slope is m, is
(y0)=m(x0)(y-0) = m(x-0)
i.e., y=mxy = mx
