Answer:


y=2x-6

Explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to


y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

In this problem we have


(1)/(2)y=x-3

Solve for y

That means ----> Isolate the variable y

Multiply by 2 both sides


y=2(x-3)

Apply distributive property right side


y=2x-6 ----> equation in slope intercept form

the slope is m=2

the y-intercept is b=-6
