Answer:
y = x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 1, 2) ← 2 points on the line
m = [tex]\frac{2-1}{-1-(-2)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{-1+2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{1}[/tex] = 1
The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 2 ) ⇒ c = 2
y = x + 2 ← equation of line
