Answer:

substitute y = mx +b = (2/3)x -2

Explanation:

slope intercert form looks like this

y = mx + b

m is the slope

b is the y intercept

The line intercepts the y at -2

To find slope, pick 2 points to find the slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1)

i select point 1 (0,-2) and point 2 (3,0)

m = (0-(-2))/(3-0) = (2)/3

substitute y = mx +b = (2/3)x -2
