intercepts are (-2, 0) and (0, 4)
use y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
m = (4 - 0) / (0 -(-2)) = 4/2 = 2, then
y = 2x + 4
here is the graph

plot given points and draw a line through
then, find the equation of the line

Solved by pluggable solver: Find the equation of line going through points

hahaWe are trying to find equation of form y=ax+b, where a is slope, and b is intercept, which passes through points (x1, y1) = (-2, 0) and (x2, y2) = (0, 4).
Slope a is .
Intercept is found from equation , or . From that,
intercept b is , or .

y=(2)x + (4)

Your graph:

so your equation is
