Explanation:

If it's a straight line the use formula


y = mx + c

m= gradient of line

c = y-intercept

we know that y-intercept is 4 so coordinate is

(0,4)

Equation also passes (2,10)

Use both coordinate to find gradient

m= vertical distance / horizontal distance

= (10-4) / (2-0)

= 3

y = 3x + 4
