Answer:

y = 6/5 x -3

Explanation:

Standard equation of a line is expressed as;

y = mx+b

Slope m = y2-y1/x2-x1

Given the coordinates (0, -3)and (-5, 3)

Slope m = 3-(-3)/-5-0

Slope m = 6/5

Since the line cuts the y axis at y = -3, hence b = -3

GEt the required equation;

Recall that y = mx+b

y = 6/5 x + (-3)

y = 6/5 x -3

This gives the required equation
