Answer:

The first graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is

y = mx + b

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

3x + y = -2

subtract 3x from both sides

y = -3x - 2

Only the first graph has a negative slope and a y-intercept of -2

answer: the first graph

Step-by-step explanation:
first solve for y: y=-3x-2
since the slope is negative (-3x) the graph with move downwards from left to right
they y-intercept is -2, so it will cross the y-axis at (0,-2)

hope this helps! :)
