Answer:

y=-3x+18

Step-by-step explanation:

since they gave us two points, we can find the slope: (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1) -> (6-3)/(4-5)=(3)/(-1)=-3 so the slope is -3. now we have [tex]y=-3x+b[/tex]. next we have to find b. to do this just plug a point into the equation: 3= -3*5 +b, 3=-15+b, b=18. so now we have y=-3x+18
