Answer:

  • 7/3
  • -3
  • y = 7/3x - 3

Explanation:

1) The slope is given by the formula ...

m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

m = (4 -(-3))/(3 -0) = 7/3

__

2) The y-intercept is the point where x=0:

(x, y) = (0, -3) . . . . . y = -3

__

3) Then the slope-intercept equation is ...

y = mx + b . . . . . . . line with slope m and y-intercept b

y = 7/3x -3
