Answer

$y=$$\frac{1}{2}$$x+4$

Work Step by Step

Slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$. The slope is going upwards, so we know it is positive. We calculate the slope by using the $\frac{rise}{run}$ run method. From point (0,4) to point (2,5), we move up 1 and right 2. So, the slope or $m$ value is $\frac{1}{2}$. The y-intercept on the graph is at (0,4), so our $b$ value is 4.
