Hello there!

For this question, we can use slope-intercept form of a line. The following equation is the format for slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

In this equation, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope and y-intercept is given. Thus, we just "plug in" the given values into the equation to get our answer. Replace "m" with "3/2" and replace "b" with "-2". After doing so, you get the following equation for the line.


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

That should be your answer. Hope this helps! :)
