Answer:

Ф Well all you need to do to write the linear equation for this function. I assume you want to know, is that you must obtain 2 points, and calculate the slope, then place the info within the following form.

Y = mx + b

1 of the points has to be the y intercept, which can be obtained from the graph, and the other, any other point, which can also be the X intercept.

So, X intercept - (2,0)

Y intercept - (0,3).

Slope = y/X = 3-0/0-2

Slope = 3/-2 or -3/2.

Now put everything together in form:

Y = mx + b

Y = -3/2x + 3.

I believe this is the solution.
