Answer:

y = 2x + 6

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

calculate slope m using the slope formula

m =
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

let (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 6) ← 2 points on the line

substitute these values into the formula for m

m =
(6-0)/(0-(-3)) =
(6)/(0+3) =
(6)/(3) = 2

the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 6 ) , then c = 6

y = 2x + 6 ← equation of line
