Answer:

y = (5/4)x + 2

How I reached this answer:

Slope-intercept form looks like this: y = mx + b

where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

We already know "m" (the slope), "x", and "y", so can just plug those into the equation and rewrite it like this:

(2) = (10/8)(0) + b

We can solve to get the value of "b", the y-intercept.

2 = 0 + b

b = 2

Now that we know what "b" is, we know all the variables and can rewrite our completed equation.

y = mx + b

y = (10/8)x + 2

and since 10/8 can be simplified, this is a nicer way to write it:

y = (5/4)x + 2
