Answer:

y = 2x - 7

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

here m = 2 , then

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (2, - 3 ) into the partial equation

- 3 = 2(2) + c = 4 + c ( subtract 4 from both sides )

- 7 = c

y = 2x - 7 ← equation of line
