Answer:


f(x)=(3)/(2)x+4

Explanation:

The Slope-Intercept Form equation is f(x)=mx+b

m= slope

b= y-intercept

you are already given the slope (
(3)/(2)), so you only have to find the y-intercept.

first, plug in the x of the point given (-6) into the equation


(3)/(2)(-6)=-9

then you find the difference of the answer and the y of the given point (-5)

-5-(-9)

-5+9=4

b=+4

Hope this makes sense.
