Answer:

y=4/2x+3 (you could've simplified the slope to 2/1)

Step-by-step explanation:

I usually start by looking for the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis), and in this case it is three.

I then do rise over run (rise/run) to find slope. You count how many units up or down between whole points, then how many left or right. You put it into a fraction and then times it by x.

Plugging them in: y= 4/2x (slope) +3 (y-intercept)

Hope this helps :)
