Answer:

I don't see the equation options.  See below for a predicted equation.

y= (2/3)x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The points are (-3,2), (0,4), and (3,6).  I will assume they lie in a straight line.

Find an equation of the form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0).

m, the slope, is also known as the "Rise/Run."

Pick any two points.  I'll use (0,4) and 3,6)

Rise = (6-4) = 2

Run  = (3-0) = 3

Slope = 2/3

The equation becomes y = (2/3)x + b

B is easy in this case.  Point (0,4) tells us that y = 4 when x = 0 (the definition of b).

The equation is y= (2/3)x + 4

See the attached graph.
