Question

A line y = mx (where m is the slope) will always pass through the point

• A. (0,0)
• B. (0,1)
• C. (1,0)
• D. (1,1)

Answer 1

The correct option is A

(0,0)

Let us take the line y = 2x.
If we take x = 0, we get y = $2\times 0=0$. This means that the line passes through (0,0) which is the origin. If we take any such equation of the form y = mx, and put x = 0, we will always get y = 0 because anything multiplied to 0 is equal to 0. Thus, the line of the form y = mx will always pass through origin.
