\begin{gathered} \text{First, find the slope of the graph} \\ \text{two points are (-1, 0) and (1, -6)} \end{gathered}
\text{slope m = }(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)\text{ = }(-6-0)/(1-(-1))=(-6)/(2)\text{ = -3}
\begin{gathered} \text{calculate the equation of the line using slope and one point form} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\ m=-3,usingpoint(-1,0),x_1=-1,y_1=\text{ 0} \\ y-0\text{ = -3( x-(-1))} \\ y=-3(x+1) \\ y=-3x-3 \end{gathered}
