See a solution process below:

Explanation:

The equation in the problem is in slope-intercept form. The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is: y = color(red)(m)x + color(blue)(b)

Where color(red)(m) is the slope and color(blue)(b) is the y-intercept value.

y = color(red)(-3)x + color(blue)(3)

Therefore:

The slope for this line is: color(red)(m = -3)

The y-intercept for this line is: color(blue)(b = 3) or (0, color(blue)(3))

"slope "=-3," y-intercept "=3

Explanation:

"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"point-slope form" is.

•color(white)(x)y=mx+b

"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"

y=-3x+3" is in this form"

rArrm=-3" and y-intercept "=3
graph{(y+3x-3)((x-0)^2+(y-3)^2-0.04)=0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
