Question

What is the equation of the line below?

Answer 1

y = 3x-3

Explanation:

i found the slope by comparing the points (1,0) and (0,-3)

the difference of the y-values over the difference of the x-values equals 3

`((-3-0))/((0-1))` equals -3/-1 or 3

the y-intercept, as seen in graph, is -3

therefore, y = 3x-3
