Answer:

y = -6x + 3

Explanation:

The format of slope intercept equations is: y = mx + b

b is the y intercept and m is the slope.

The y intercept here is 3 (0,3).

The line goes to the right 1 unit and down 6 units. The slope is rise over run, so the rise is -6 and the run is 1. That makes the slope: -6

Plugging this into the variables, we get:

y = -6x + 3
