Write the equation of this line in slope-intercept form.
Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.
(-3, 0) (0, -3)
First, find the slope using the formula:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (-3 - 0) / (0 - (-3))
m = -3 / 3
m = -1
Next, use the point-slope form of a linear equation to find the equation of the line:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Using the point (-3, 0):
y - 0 = -1(x -(-3))
y = -x + 3
Therefore, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:
y = -x + 3
