  4. y = 2x

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the equation of the line that passes through the origin and has a slope of -1?
  • Step 1: Understand that a line can be described using the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
  • Step 2: Since the line passes through the origin, the y-intercept (b) is 0. This means the equation simplifies to y = mx.
  • Step 3: The problem states that the slope (m) is -1.
  • Step 4: Substitute -1 for m in the equation: y = -1x.
  • Step 5: Simplify the equation: y = -x.
