Answer:

The equation of the line is written in the slope-intercept form, which is: y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept.

Answer:

y = x + 6

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

calculate m using the slope formula

m =
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 10) ← 2 points on the line

m =
(10-6)/(4-0) =
(4)/(4) = 1

the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 6 ) ⇒ c = 6

y = x + 6 ← equation of line
