Answer:

Y=1/3x+3

Explanation:

To solve this problem, first, you have to use the slope formula of y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁=rise/run. Remember to solve this problem, use slope-intercept form of y=mx+b.

m represents the slope.

b represents the y-intercept.

Y₂=4

Y₁=1

X₂=3

X₁=(-6)

Solve & simplify.


\displaystyle \mathsf{(4-1)/(3-(-6))=(3)/(9)=(3/3)/(9/3)=(1)/(3)    }}

The slope is 1/3.

Y-intercept is 3.

y=1/3x+3

In conclusion, the correct answer is y=1/3x+3.
