y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y intercept or where the line crosses the y axis

slope=rise/run, from left to right

so

1.
ok, so we see it is going throught (-2,1) and (-1,4)
so it hits (-2,1) and then goes up 3 and right 1
so sloe=3/1 or 3
y intercept, it hits at y=7 so
y=3x+7 is equation

2.
we gots a hit at (0,2) and (5,6) about
so goes up 4 and to the right 3 so
4/3 is slope
hits y axis at about y=2
y=(4/3)x+2
