(\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m} ~=~ 3 \\\\\\ \begin{array}c \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-2)}=\stackrel{m}{ 3}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{0}) \implies y +2= 3 (x -0) \\\\\\ y+2=3x\implies y=3x-2
