We just need to put x and y coordinates into equatoins

1)


y = - (2)/(3) x + 1 \\ - 1 = - (2)/(3) * ( - 3) + 1 \\ - 1 \\eq3

2)


y = - (2)/(3) x + 3 \\ - 1 = - (2)/(3) * ( - 3) + 3 \\ - 1 \\eq5

3)


y = - (2)/(3) x - 1 \\ - 1 = - (2)/(3) * ( - 3) - 1 \\ - 1 \\eq1

4)


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

Answer:


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