y = mx + b

M= your slope or rise over run

B = your y-intercept

For example if the rise was 5 and the run is 6, the equation would say
y = 5/6 + b
The / being your fraction bar

The y-intercept is where your line crosses the y-axis
So say that the line crosses the y-axis at 10
y = 5/6 + 10

That about sums it all up!
