Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 0 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 3)

m = [tex]\frac{-3-0}{0+2}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 3) ⇒ c = - 3

y = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 3 ← equation in slope- intercept form
