slope-intercept form:

y= mx+b

Where:

m= slope

b= y-intercept

Apply the slope formula:

[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

Use two coordinate points from the table:

Point 1 = (x1,y1) = (-3,-4)

Point 2 = (x2,y2) = (0,-3)

Replacing:

[tex]m=\frac{-3-(-4)}{0-(-3)}=\frac{-3+4}{0+3}=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

slope = 1/3

The y-intercept is the coordinate point where x=0 (0,-3)

b= -3

Final equation:

y= 1/3x -3
