Explanation:

Step 1: Write the equation using point-slope form

Point-Slope Form:
y-y_(1)=m\left(x-x_(1)\right)


y-0=m(x-3)


y = m(x-3)

Step 2: Find the slope


m=(y_(2)-y_(1))/(x_(2)-x_(1))


m=(-2-0)/(-2-(-3))


m=(-2)/(1)


m=-2

Step 3: Combine them together


y = m(x - 3)

y = -2(x - 3)

IF NEEDED: Completely factor


y = (-2 * x) + (-2 * -3)

y = -2x + 6
