Your simple answer will be Y = 3/5 x+3


Explain:

The two points on the graph = (-5,0) (0,3)

And then the Y intercept is the number 3

**that is where it intersects on the Y Axis**



So then the slope is....

change Y

0 to 3 up 3

(zero to three) and then (up three)

=3/5


Next...

change X

-5 to 0 Right 5

(negetive five to zero) and (Right five)

(the slope is a positive)


Now the Sloppe intercept is

Y =mx+b

Y = 3/5 x+3


So that is your final answer :)

I hope that this helps

If you have any questions im here to help :)

Answer:

y = 3/5 x+3

Explanation:

two points on the graph

(-5,0) (0,3)

the y intercept is 3 (this is where it crosses the y axis)

the slope is

change in y 0 to 3 up 3

------------------ = -------------- = ------- = 3/5

change in x -5 to 0 right 5


we can tell the slope is positive because it goes from bottom left to top right

a negative slope goes from top left to bottom right

slope intercept form is

y=mx+b

y = 3/5 x+3
