Answer:

The equation of the line is y = 3/4x - 1/4

Explanation:

To find the equation of this line, start by using the two points with the slope formula to find the slope.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (2 - 1/2)/(3 - 1)

m = (3/2)/2

m = 3/4

Now that we have the slope, we can use that and either point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = 3/4(x - 3)

y - 2 = 3/4x - 9/4

y = 3/4x - 1/4
