The slope is 1/2. So the rise is 1 and the run is 2.

-------------------------------------------------------

Start at (3,2)

Go up one unit. This is the "rise" of 1.

Go to the right 2 units. This is the "run" of 2.

You'll land on the point (5,3)

Plot the two points (3,2) and (5,3) and draw a line through them to get
