Answer:


\large\boxed{y=(2)/(3)x+1}

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:


y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept → (0, b)

The fromual of a slope:


m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

(x₁, y₁), (x₂, y₂) - points on a line

We have the points from the graph:

(0, 1) → b = 1 and (3, 3).

Calculate the slope:


m=(3-1)/(3-0)=(2)/(3)

Finally we have the equation of a line:


y=(2)/(3)x+1
