Answer:

y = 3x + 41

Explanation:

First, lets set up the slope-intercept form equation, that is...

y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

because the y-intercept is a positive value, it cannot be y=-3x-41 or y= 3x-41

now, we know that b = 41, but what is the slope?

Well, here are tips for doing slope

if the line is gradually increasing upwards, then it is a positive slope

if the line is gradually decreasing downwards, then it is a negative slope

because the line in the picture is positive, this proves y=-3x+41 wrong, therefore making y = 3x + 41 the only correct answer

Therefore, your correct answer is y = 3x + 41
