Answer: Answer is y= 3x+1

Explanation:

Use point slope form y-y°=m(x-x°)

Find m, the slope: subtract the y values of the points, and divide that with the number you get when you subtract the x values of the points.

You should get m=3

Take either of the points, I’ll choose (0,1) because they are easy to use. Substitute 0 for x° and 1 for y°.

y-(1)=3(x-(0)) Substitute (0,1)

y-1=3x Simplify

y=3x+1 Add 1 to both sides and you’re done
