Answer:

y= 1/2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to y=mx+b, m=slope and b= y-intercept

First, you find the slope: you can find the slope by finding the rise over run between two points. Rise= 1, Run=2. The slope is rise/run (rise over run), so the slope would be 1/2 (one half).

Next, find the y-intercept. It is where the line touches the y-axis. Here, it would be 1.

Finally, put these in y=mx+b form:

y=(slope)x+(y-intercept) ---> y= 1/2x + 1

I tried my best to explain everything, I hope you found this helpful!
