Answer:

y=2/3x - 5

Explanation:

Since we have the slope and a point, we can make an equation in point intercept form (y=mc+b) by using the point slope form formula (y-y1)=m(x-x1), where (x1,y1) is the point you plug in.

(y-y1)=m(x-x1)

m=2/3

y1=-3

x1=3

y- -3=2/3(x-3)

y+3=2/3(x-3)

Distribute 2/3 with (x-3) by multiplying

y+3=2/3x - 2

Subtract 3 from both sides

y=2/3x - 5
