Answer: y = 3/2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is Y = Mx + b

Mx = the slope

B = the y intercept

The y intercept is 3

So

Y = Mx + 3

The slope is 3/2 or 1 1/2

To find the slope look on the graph and see where the line meets another point. In this case it’s at (-2, 0). Then count up how many units until it reaches the point. In this case it goes up three units. Now count how many over. Here it’s 2.

It’s always rise/run

Our rise is 3 and run is 2 so 3/2

Hope this helps

It will be y=3x+-2
There on the point and 3 is on the y axis and -2 is on the x axis or it's y=-2x+3
