Answer:

y = (-1/3)x + 4

Explanation:

m = rise/run = y2 - y1 3 - 4 -1

----------- = -------- = ----

x2 - x1 3 - 0 3

y = mx + b

y = (-1/3)x + b

Pick either coordinate. For this, I'll pick (0, 4)

4 = (-1/3)(0) + b

4 = b

y = (-1/3)x + 4

If you are certain about M = (-5/6), then replace (-1/3) with (-5/6)

I hope this helps!
