Lets find 2 points, one obvious one is (0,0), another point is (12,4)
[tex]Slope = \frac{4-0}{12-0} =\frac{4}{12} = \frac{4\times 1}{4\times 3} = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
y = mx + b
m is the slope
we got m = 1/3
We can eliminate answer choices C and D.
y = 1/3x + b
we need to solve for b
Plug in the point (0,0) and solve for b
0 = 1/3(0) + b
0 = 0 + b
b = 0
The equation of the line is y = 1/3x + 0, or y = 1/3x
Your answer is B.
