1) Examining the graph, we can see the labeled point (3,-6)

2) Therefore we can plug it into that formula below this point and find the point-slope form of this linear function. But at first, we need to find the slope m, picking another point (0,-4)


m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)\Rightarrow m=(-4-(-6))/(0-3)=(2)/(-3)=-(2)/(3)

2.2) Now we can plug it into that the slope and one point


undefined
