\underline {Find \ Slope:}

\boxed {Slope = (3-(-6))/(3-(-6)) = (9)/(9) = 1}


Substitute \ slope \ into \ the \ general \ equation: \bf y = mx + c

\boxed {y = x + c}


\underline {Find \ y-intercept: }

At (3, 3),

3 = 3 + c

c = 3 - 3

\boxed{c = 0}


Substitute \ into \ equation, \ \bf y = x + c

\boxed {\boxed {y = x}}
