Explanation:

the most common form of line equation is

y = ax + b

a is the slope of the line. it is expressed as the ratio

y coordinate change / x coordinate change

when going from one point to the other.

b is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0).

so, in our case, the slope is 2, the y-intercept is -3.

the y-intercept gives you the first point : (0, -3)

using the slope of 2 we know that for every unit x increases, y increases by 2.

so, you can pick a next point e.g. x = 2, which makes y = -3 + 2×2 = -3 + 4 = 1

that gives us (2, 1)

mark both points on the chart and then draw a straight line through both points.
