Slope intercept form of a line that passes through point (x0,y0) with slope m is given by:
y=m(x-x0)+y0
Substitute values to get equation. Post your answer for checking if you wish.
What is the equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, that goes through the point (2,-3) with m=6 ?

well, I would start with:
y+3 = 6(x-2)
then arrange it to the form you want
You did not specify which of the intercept forms you want.
y+3 = 6(x-2)
then arrange it to the form you want
You did not specify which of the intercept forms you want.
P(2,-3), m = 6.
Y = mx + b
-3 = 6*2 + b,
b = -15 = y-int.
Eq: Y = 6x - 15.
Y = mx + b
-3 = 6*2 + b,
b = -15 = y-int.
Eq: Y = 6x - 15.
