Answer:
y = - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 0) ← 2 points on the line
m = [tex]\frac{0-1}{3-0}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 1) ⇒ c = 1
y = - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] x + 1 ← equation of line
