Answer:

y = -3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form:

        [tex]\boxed{y = mx + b}[/tex]

m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Slope = m = -3

The line passes through the point (4 , -15).

 x = 4 ; y =-15 and m = -3

We can find the y-intercept by substituting in the above equation.

      -15 = (-3)*4 + b

      -15 = -12 + b

-15 +12 = b

         [tex]\boxe{b = -3}[/tex]

Slope-intercept form:

      y = -3x - 3
