Answer:

y = 1/3x - 3

Explanation:

First, find the slope using the formula y2 - y2 / x2 - x1

-2 (-3) / 3-0 = m

1/3 = m

Plug this into the y = mx + b, and solve for b.

(Let's use (0, -3) for values x and y)

-3 = 1/2 (0) + b

-3 = 0 + b

-3 = b

Let's plug in both m and b for the final answer.

y = mx + b

y = 1/3x + -3

y = 1/3x - 3
