Answer:

The answer is y = 3x + 2

Explanation:

To find the equation of the line given a point and the gradient, the formula to use is

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where

m is the gradient and

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question

The point is (0 , 2)

The gradient is 3

Substitute the values into the above formula

That's

y - 2 = 3( x - 0)

y - 2 = 3x

The final answer is

y = 3x + 2

Hope this helps you
