An equation of the type $y=kx (k ≠ 0)$ represents a line : |
passing through the origin intersecting the coordinate axes at two different points parallel to x-axis parallel to y-axis |
passing through the origin |
The equation y = kx always passes through the origin because when the constant of proportionality, k, is zero, the value of y becomes zero regardless of the value of x. The line represents a linear relationship where y is directly proportional to x. |
