Answer:

y = 3x + 1

Explanation:

The equation is y = mx + b

m = the slope

b = y-intercept

The slope = rise/run or (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Pick 2 points (0,1) ( 1,4)

We see the y increase by 3 and the x increase by 1, so the slope is

m = 3

The y-intercept is located at (0,1)

So, the equation is y = 3x + 1
