To find the slope of the equation, we can use the formula for slope:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Let's take the points (2, 1) and (4, 2) to calculate the slope:
m = (2 - 1) / (4 - 2)
m = 1 / 2
m = 0.5
Therefore, the slope of the equation is 0.5.
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Let's take the points (2, 1) and (4, 2) to calculate the slope:
m = (2 - 1) / (4 - 2)
m = 1 / 2
m = 0.5
Therefore, the slope of the equation is 0.5.

ok, now what is the equation of the line?

To find the equation of the line, we can use the slope-intercept form of a linear equation:
y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
In this case, we already know the y-intercept is (0, 0), so we can write:
y = 0.5x + 0
Simplifying, we get:
y = 0.5x
Therefore, the equation of the line is y = 0.5x.
y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
In this case, we already know the y-intercept is (0, 0), so we can write:
y = 0.5x + 0
Simplifying, we get:
y = 0.5x
Therefore, the equation of the line is y = 0.5x.
