Solution

The correct option is A 1
We are given with the line: $y = x$ . Let the slope of this given line be ' $m$ '.

Slope would be given as : $m = \frac{C h a n g e i n y}{C h a n g e i n x}$

Slope $= \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} = \frac{y_{1} - y_{2}}{x_{1} - x_{2}}$
Let $(x_{1}, y_{1}) = (1, 1)$ and $(x_{2}, y_{2}) = (0, 0)$
$m = \frac{1 - 0}{1 - 0}$
$m = 1$
The line would look like this:
