Answer 1

y = -
`(1)/(3)` x + 1

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

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

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 0) ← 2 points on the line

m =
`(0-1)/(3-0)` = -
`(1)/(3)`

Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 1) ⇒ c = 1

y = -
`(1)/(3)` x + 1 ← equation of line
