Answer:

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

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m =
(1)/(3) , then

y =
(1)/(3) x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (3, - 2) into the partial equation

- 2 = 1 + c ⇒ c = - 2 - 1 = - 3

y =
(1)/(3) x - 3 ← equation of line
