Answer:

y=3/5x+3

Explanation:

Use the equation for slope-intercept y=mx+b. First we will find the slope of this function (m) by taking two points. For this equation, I took (0,3) and (5,6). Using the equation (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), we get
(6-3)/(5-0), or a slope of 3/5.
All that's left is to find the y-intercept, or b. This is easy, since we can see that the function intercepts at (0,3).
Leaving us with a function y=3/5x+3
