The general equation of a line is y=mx+c where m is the gradient and c is the y intercept.
c is easy, its 2 as it says in the question but the gradient is a little more tricky...
using the formula gradient = rise over run we can say that the gradient is 2/1 therefore 2!
so the final line is y=2x+2
Hope this helps,

What is the xintercept for this linear equation 6x - y equals 9?
-3
What is the equation of the line if the slope is -4 and the y-intercept is 1?
The straight line equation is: y = -4x+1
What is an equation of y3x-1?
Without an equality sign it is not an equation but if you mean y = 3x-1 then it is a straight line equation

What equation of the line that contains the point 1 -1 and 2 -2?
Choose the equation of the line that contains the points (1, -1) and (2, -2).
What would the equation of a line be if it went through the point 2 comma 2 and its yintercept was 10?
We know that the line passes through points (2, 2) and (0, 10) (since the y-intercept is 10).Using these two points, we can find the slope of the line,m = (10 - 2)/(0 - 2) = 8/-2 = 4/-1 = -4.Now by using the slope, m = -4, and the y-intercept, 10, we can write the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b which isy = -4x + 10.
