Answer:
y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 3
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 = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 6, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 3) ← 2 points on the line
m = [tex]\frac{3-0}{0-(-6)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{0+6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 3 ) ⇒ c = 3
y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 3 ← equation of line
