Question 10761: Slope of 3, passes through a line (0,-6)
I need you to show work so I know how to do it please.

Remember y = mx + b??

That means that if you know the y-intercept (that would be b) and if you know the slope (that would be m), then you can get the equation of the line VERY easily:

In this case, m= 3, and b= -6, so the equation is y= 3x-6.

Did you want the graph also? It will look like this:
