Answer:

y = -2x+1

Explanation:

We have a point and a slope, so we can use the point slope form of a line

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is the point

y-3 = -2(x--1)

y-3=-2(x+1)

Distribute the 2

y-3 = -2x-2

Add 3 to each side

y-3+3 = -2x-2+3

y = -2x+1

This is in slope intercept form
