Answer:


y=(4)/(3)x+4

Explanation:

In order to identify the equation of line from the given graph, we need to find the slope and the y-intercept.

Slope of a line is the ratio of rise to run or change in
y over change in
x.

The y-intercept is a point on the line for which the
x value is 0.
In other words, it is on the y-axis.

Here, from the graph,

y-intercept is at point (0,4). So, y-intercept is the
y value which is,
b= 4.

Also, slope is given as,
m=(\Delta y)/(\Delta x)=(4)/(3)

Therefore, the equation of the line is:


y=mx+b\\y=(4)/(3)x+4
