The equation for a Point-Slope Form of a line is:

.
The equation for Slope-Intercept Form of the Line is:

.
Now, all we need to do is substitute the x and y values to answer the question.
.
Problem: x-intercept is -6 ; y-intercept is 2
.
In the Point-Slope eqn, you substitute the x1 and y1 variables. So:


.
Slope-intercept form:
