LET US FIND THE GRADIENT


m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1 \\ \\ ) \\ = (6 - ( - 2))/((3 - ( - 3)) \\ = (6 + 2)/(3 + 3) \\ = (8)/(6) \\ m= (4)/(3)

I WILL USE THE POINTS (-3,-2) TO GET THE VALUE OF C


- 2 = (4)/(3) ( - 3) + c \\ - 2 = - 4 + c \\ - 2 + 4 = c \\ c = 2

THEREFORE THE EQUATION IS


y = (4)/(3) x + 2

ATTACHED IS THE SOLUTION
