Answer:

y = 2/3x + 1

Explanation:

So, the equation they're looking for is slope and intercept right? I have my own way of doing it, but I'll show it to you too!

For slope: I remember rise/run. What this means is the rise which is how much you go up or down becomes the numerator (number on top of fraction) and the run which is how much you go left or right is the denominator (number on the bottom of the fraction.) What you are looking for to find this is the separation between the dots. If you look at the dot on the y, and the dot that is the closest one when you look at the top right, those are the two we are comparing. We chose those because it's easiest, and the answer choices have no negatives for the slope. Now, from the dot on the y, you have to go up 2, and go to the right 3 to get to the next dot. This makes the fraction 2/3. That's all!

(Not 100%) Intercept: For this, I look for where the dot on the y is. As you can see, it's located +1 above (0,0) That's all!

Hopefully this helps you! :)
