Is it true that a line with slope 1 always passes through the origin? Explain your reasoning.

Well, yes and no.
Yes, because the straight line needs to pass through a number greater than 0, and 1 is obviously greater than 0.
However, y = x + 1 is not the same as y = x.
hope this helps.! let me know if it's in any way confusing..
I'd be happy to help!
