Answer:

y = - x + 6

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, 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 0) ← 2 points on the line

m = [tex]\frac{0-6}{6-0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-6}{6}[/tex] = - 1

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 6 ) ⇒ c = 6

y = - x + 6 ← equation of line
