Answer:

equation for line: y = 5/3x -7/3

Explanation:

The equation for a linear line is y = mx + c. m is the gradient of the line, also known as slope. So, m = 5/3.

Next we need to find c. Since we know a point the line must intersect, we can sub this into our line equation to get an answer:

(2,1) x=2,y=1

1 = 5/3*2 + c

1 = 10/3 + c

1 - 10/3 = c

3/3 - 10/3 = c

-7/3 = c

The final eqaution of the line is: y = 5/3x -7/3
