Answer: m= 2/3


equation: 2/3x + 2

Explanation:

well, when looking at the graph, we already know that the y intercept is 2 so when writing an equation it’s always going to say +2 at the end of that specific equation. With m, we need to know where is the next point at an actual number and not in the middle of random ones. So I went back where another point is which is (-3,0). Then it goes to (0,2). To get there, you need to move up 2 and move to the right 3. 2 is your rise, 3 is your run. Rise/run. That’s how I got 2/3. Hope this helps you :)

Answer:

m=2/3

Explanation:

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by -3,3 but I'm guessing it is a coordinate.

The part you got wrong was asking for the slope. To find slope, you do rise/run (aka vertical/horizontal movement)

Starting at point (-3,0), I went up two and right 3 to get to point (0,2). I tried it again going from point (0,2) to point (3,4).
