to find what is the equation used to find , use any two given points and find the equation of line going through that points

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) = (1, 3) and (x2, y2) = (4, 22).
Slope a is .
Intercept is found from equation , or . From that,
intercept b is , or .

y=(6.33333333333333)x + (-3.33333333333333)

Your graph:





or, you can write it as
