y = 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

coordinate (-2,-6) = (x, y)

slope = 3

using the equation of line in slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

we insert the values given above to get the y-intercept

-6 = 3(-2) + b

-6 = -6 + b

-6 + 6 = b

b = 0

The equation of the line in slope:

y = 3x + 0

y = 3x
