Answer:

m= y/x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to find the slope (m) is to determine 2 points then divide the difference of y-coordinates with the x-coordinates.

The equation will look like this:

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)  

When a function goes through the origin(0, 0), that means the line doesn't have c variable, the equation of the line will be as simple as y=mx

Then the equation to find the slope(m) will be:

y=mx

m=y/x

You can directly divide y-coordinate with x-coordinate to find the slope.
