The line passes through the point (0,2) and the slope m =
-3.
Let us write the equation in the standard
form:
y-y1 = m(x-x1) such
that:
(x1,y1) is any point that passes through the line and
m is the slope.
Given the point (0,2) and slope m= -3 , we
will subsitute these values into the equation:
y-y1=
m(x-x1)
y- 2 = -3 (x - 0)
y-2
= -3x
Now add 2 to both
sides:
==> y= -3x + 2
is the formula for the
line.
