Answer 1

The answer is at the bottom hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

$y = \frac{1}{3}x - 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the gradient be calculated as follows:

slope = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

         = $\frac{-7-(-3)}{6-(-6)}\\ = -\frac{1}{3}$

to find the equation passing through the point we calculate as follows:

$- 3= \frac{1}{3} (-6) + b\\ -1 = b$

Therefore, the equation of the line is:

$y = \frac{1}{3}x - 1$
