Answer:

y=1/2x+3

Explanation:

Put it into the y=mx+b formula where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept.

To graph, use the point (0,3) and find another point using substitution. For example, use the y=1/2x+3 and substitute x for a number on the coordinate plane. Then you'll have another point.

y=1/2x+3

y=1/2(4)+3

y=2+3

y=5

So another point could be (4,5). Graph the points on the coordinate plane now.
