Answer:


y = 2x + 2

Explanation:


euation \: of \: a \: line \: has \: the \: forula \\ y - y1 = m(x - x1) \\ where \: m = slope \\ m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = ( - 6 - - 4)/( - 4 - - 3) \\ = ( - 6 + 4)/( - 4 + 3) = ( - 2)/( - 1) = 2 \\ now \: putting \: m = 2 \: into \: the \: equation \\ y - - 4 = 2(x - - 3) \\ y + 4 = 2(x + 3) \\ y + 4 = 2x + 6 \\ y = 2x + 6 - 4 \\ y = 2x + 2
