Answer: y = 3x + 1
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The equation is in Slope-Intercept format: y = mx + b where
- m is the slope <em>(difference in y's over difference in x's)</em>
- b is the y-intercept <em>(value of y when x = 0)</em>
b = 1 <em>refer to the table that shows y = 1 when x = 0</em>
Now input m = 3 and b = 1 into the Slope-Intercept formula:
y = 3x + 1
