Answer:

y = 3x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

Where:

y is the y value.

m is the slope.

x is the x value.

And b is the y-intercept.

First, you want to find your slope. To do this, you can either use the slope formula to find the slope, or just count on the picture:

m = rise/run

m = 3/1

m = 3

With the slope formula, you first need to choose two points.

I chose:

(2, -1) and (3, 2)

Slope formula:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) {It doesn't matter which point you choose to be x2 and x1, just be consistent when you plug it into the formula}

m = (2 - (-1)) / (3 - 2)

m = 3/1

m = 3

Now that you have your slope, all you need is your y-intercept. To find your y-intercept, you can either look at the graph (again) to see where the line intersects with the y-axis, or you can solve it algebraically:

y-int = -7

To solve algebraically, choose a random point on the line and plug it into what you have for your equation so far and then solve for b.

I chose:

(2, -1)

y = 3x + b

-1 = 3(2) + b

-1 = 6 + b

-1 - 6 = b

b = -7

Now you have your final answer:

y = 3x - 7
