Which equation represents the line that passes through (0,0) and is parallel to the line passing through (2,3) and (6,1)?
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "Since f(0)= 0, the intercept is 0.
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "Those points yield a slope of (1-3)/(6-2) = -2/4 = -1/2
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: b
\n" ); document.write( "=============
