Answer: Slope = 1/2

One point = (0,1.5)

Explanation:

1. Add 3 to both sides

2. Distribute the 1/2

3. Combine like terms

The slope is the number connected to the x by multiplication.

The constant / number after the plus sign (1.5) is the y-intercept. The y-intercept always has x=0 so you know that it is (0,1.5)
