Answer:

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{6}x - 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope Intercept Form :   [tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Using our slope, -1/6, input it for m, then plug the point (-6, -2) for x and y

[tex]y = mx+b\\\\-2 = (-1/6)(-6) + b\\\\-2 = 1 + b\\\\b = -3[/tex]

Equation : [tex]y = -\frac{1}{6}x - 3[/tex]
