Answer:
It is y = x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
General equation of a line:
[tex]{ \bf{y = mx + c}}[/tex]
m is the gradient, and c is y-intercept.
For gradient:
[tex]slope = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x _{2} - x_{1}} [/tex]
substitute:
[tex]slope = \frac{1 - ( - 2)}{6 - 3} \\ \\ = \frac{3}{3} \\ slope \: = 1[/tex]
m = 1
for y-intercept:
consider point (6, 1):
[tex]y = mx + c \\ 1 = (6 \times 1) + c \\ 1 = 6 + c \\ c = 1 - 6 = - 5[/tex]
therefore:
[tex]{ \sf{equation \: is \: \{y = x - 5 \}}}[/tex]
