Answer:

y=2x+4

Explanation:

**Your line isn't clearly shown on point with the grid**

If you want this in the slope-intercept form then here it is:

Slope-intercept formula: y=mx+b

Your coordinates: (-3,2) and (1,10)

To find the slope (which is the "m" in the formula) you need to do this formula:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 =

(The 2's and 1's should be subscript)

10-2/1-(-3) = 8/4

8/4=2

The slope should be 2

Formula right now: y=2x+b

You need to find the y-intercept:

That should be a point on the y-axis.

(0,n) **N is used for a variable since we don't have a number yet.

In your coordinate plane, (0,4) is your y-intercept.

When writing the y-intercept in the formula don't write a coordinate write the "y"

Formula: y=2x+4
