Answer:

C is your correct answer : y = 2x + 3

Explanation:

Your answer choices are all in slope-intercept form.

Slope-Intercept Form: y=mx+b

First, you need to find the y-intercept.

Coordinate Point: (0,3) is your y-intercept.

Now, you need to find the slope.

This slope is positive.

There's another point (1,5).

This point is important because you can start at your y-intercept and rise and run to get to (1,5).

You have to rise up 2 and go over to the right 1.

2/1 is your slope but simplified is 2.

Your formula: y = 2x + 3

C is your correct answer
