The line has a slope of one half. If you look at the dots made, take a look at the dot on the y-axis. Then, if you move up one space from that point, and move two spaces to the right of the point, you reach the second dot. This determines the slope which would be written as 1/2x. Then, if you look back to where the line passes through the y axis, you'll see it landed on positive five. This means 5 will be added to the end of the equation. So, y equals the slope plus the y-intercept. y = 1/2x + 5
