Answer:

  y = 3x -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation will have the same x- and y-coefficients, but a different constant. That constant can be found by substituting the given point values for x and y.

  y = 3x +b . . . . . . . given equation with new constant 'b'

  10 = 3·6 +b

  b = -8 . . . . . . . . subtract 18

The equation of the line is ...

  y = 3x - 8
