Answer:

m=3 b=-2 y=3x-2

Explanation:

The slope/m is 3 because the rise is 3 and the run is 1. Rise over run and you get 3/1 also known as 3.

The y-intercept point/b is -2 because you can look at the graph and the point where the line touches the y-axis is the y-intercept/b

The equation is written in the format of y=mx+b so y and then m is the slope then add x after the slope, then write the y intercept.
