You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y = 3/4 x + 2
This is the slope-intercept method, since this equation is in slope-intercept form, I think it's appropriate.
Slope-intercept form is: highlight%28y=mx%2Bb%29, m=slope and (0,b)=y-intercept
Plot the y-intercept, (0,b)=(0,2)
From that point use the slope to plot a second point, the slope=rise/run. Our slope is 3/4, so rise up 3, and run right 4 and plot a point at what should be: (4,5)
Connect your two points and you should have a line that looks like:
