Answer:

y = 3x + 4

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

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

here slope m = 3 , then

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (- 2, - 2 ) into the partial equation

- 2 = 3(- 2) + c = - 6 + c ( add 6 to both sides )

4 = c

y = 3x + 4 ← equation of line
