Answer:

y = x - 600

Explanation:

y = mx + b , "m" is slope and "b" is y-intercept

y -
y_(1) = m(x -
x_(1))

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

y-intercept is (0, - 600) and x-intercept is (600, 0)

The slope is 1

y + 600 = x - 0

y = x - 600

(Y2-y1)/(x2-x1) is slope equation
Pick any two points (600,0) and (0,-600)
(-600-0)/(0-600) = -600/-600 = 1
y = x + b
Plot the points inside
0 = 600 + b
b = -600
Final equation: y = x - 600
