Answer:

The equation of the line is:

[tex]y = 3x+3[/tex]

The graph is also attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

From the straight line on the graph, taking two points

  • (0, 3)
  • (-1, 0)

Finding the slope between (0, 3) and (-1, 0)

Using the formula

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

               =  [0 - 3] / [-1 - 0]

               = -3 / -1  

               = 3

Thus, the slope of the line = m = 3

We know that the value of y-intercept can be determined by setting x = 0, and determining the corresponding value of y.

From the graph, it is clear

at x = 0, y = 3

Thus, the y-intercept b = 3

Now, substituting slope m = 3 and y-intercept b = 3 in the slope-intercept form

y = mx+b

y = 3x+3

Therefore, the equation of the line is:

[tex]y = 3x+3[/tex]
