Answer:

Equation of line GH is y=x+3.

Explanation:

Equation of any line can be represented in the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

The given line is passing through the points ( 2,5) and (6,9).

Slope =m = (9-5)÷(6-2) =1.

The given line passes through the point (2,5) and m=1.

Substituting the values of m,x,y in y=mx+b we have:

5=1(2)+b

Or, 5=2+b ,

Or b=3 .

Line GH has slope m=1 and y intercept b=3 .

Hence equation of line GH is y=x+3.
