The general equation for a linear equation is:


y=mx+b

the y-intercept is b and m represents the slope.

the slope can be understood as the change in y over a specified interval in x


m=(\Delta y)/(\Delta x)

then, form the equation:


y=(2)/(3)x+2

we know that it needs to pass through the point (0,2) as the y-intercept and the slope is a positive, meaning that the line needs to be increasing as x gets bigger.

Answer:

The correct graph is the second option
