Answer:

y = -2/3x + 2 or

2x + 3y = 6 (standard form).

Explanation:

I am assuming you want the equation of the straight line that passes through these 2 points.

The 2 points are (3, 0 ) and (0, 2).

The slope of the line = (2 - 0) / (0 - 3)

= -2/3.

The equation is y = -2/3x + 2 ( as 2 is the y-intercept).

In standard form this is :

3y = -2x + 6

2x + 3y = 6.

Answer:

y = -2/3x + 2

Explanation:

Hey there!

Well since we already got the y-intercept to find slope we'll use the points,

(3,0) and (0,2).

Formula:
(y^2 - y^1)/(x^2 - x^1)

Plug in the given points,


(2 - 0)/(0 - 3)

Slope = -2/3

Slope-intercept: y = -2/3x + 2

Hope this helps :)
