Problem should read
graph a line that passes *through* (0,0) parallel to a slope 2/3
A straight line will have the form
+y+=+m%2Ax+%2B+b+ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
given:
+m+=+2%2F3+
(x,y) = (0,0)
+0+=+m%2A0+%2B+b+
+b+=+0+
So far I have +y+=+m%2Ax+
+y+=+%282%2F3%29%2Ax+ answer
Here's a plot:
+graph%28+400%2C+400%2C+-5%2C+5%2C+-6%2C+6%2C+%282%2F3%29%2Ax%29+
