Answer

\(\boxed{y = mx + b}\) is the final equation in slope-intercept form.

Steps

Step 1 :First, find the slope of the line by identifying two points on the graph. Let's call these points A and B.

Step 2 :Calculate the slope using the formula \(m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\).

Step 3 :Now that we have the slope, we can use the point-slope form of a line equation: \(y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\). Choose one of the points A or B to plug into the equation.

Step 4 :Solve for y to get the equation in slope-intercept form: \(y = mx + b\).

Step 5 :\(\boxed{y = mx + b}\) is the final equation in slope-intercept form.
