Set 6: Linear Functions (Advanced)

Explanation

Answer: A

Which line passes through the origin?

A.

2x3y=02x - 3y = 0

✓ Correct
B.

2x3y=62x - 3y = 6

C.

x=2x = 2

D.

y=3y = 3

Detailed Explanation

Choice A is correct. Choice A is the correct answer. Test (0,0)(0, 0). 1. Substitute: 2(0)3(0)=02(0) - 3(0) = 0. 2. Result: 0=00= 0 (True). Strategic Tip: In Standard Form Ax+By=CAx+By=C, if C=0C=0, the line passes through the origin. Choice B is incorrect because 060\neq 6. Choice C is incorrect because 020\neq 2. Choice D is incorrect because 030\neq 3.

Key Steps:

The correct answer is 2x3y=02x - 3y = 0

Why others are wrong:
B: Choice B is incorrect and may result from a calculation error.
C: Choice C is incorrect and may result from a calculation error.
D: Choice D is incorrect and may result from a calculation error.
