Answer:
To find the slope use the distance formula. The distance formula is Y2-Y1/X2-X1.
300-100/10-2
200/8
25
So, the equation so far is y=25x+b. To find the y-intercept, substitute one of the points into the equation.
100=25(2)+b
100=50+b
b=50
The equation of the line is y=25x+50.

Answer:
y = 25x + 50
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph shows this line passing through (2, 100) and (10, 300). Here x changes from 2 to 10, a 'run' of 8, and y changes from 100 to 300, a 'rise" of 200. Hence the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 200/8 = 100/4 = 25.
The basic slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. We know that m = 25. Taking coordinate values from (2, 100), we let x = 2 and y = 100:
100 = 25(2) + b, or 100 = 50 + b.
Therefore, the y-intercept is 50, and the desired equation in slope-intercept form is
y = 25x + 50
