The equation of the line in its generic form is given by:

[tex]y-yo = m (x-xo)[/tex]

Where,

m: slope of the line

(xo, yo): point that belongs to the line

Substituting values we have:

[tex]y - (- 3) = -6 (x - (- 2))[/tex]

Rewriting the equation we have:

 [tex]y + 3 = -6 (x + 2)[/tex]

[tex]y + 3 = -6x-12[/tex]

[tex]y = -6x-12-3[/tex]

[tex]y = -6x-15[/tex]

Answer:

The equation of the line is given by:

[tex]y = -6x-15[/tex]
