Welcome to QC

The slope-intercept equation of a line is $y=mx+b$
m = slope
b = y-intercept

The question gave us the y-intercept (0,-3), so we can substitute that for b
$y=mx-3$

They also gave us a point (3,0) [Remember that points are written as (x,y) which is also included in the equation] Substitute this into the equation we have
$0=m(3)-3$      =>     $0=3m-3$

Now you need to simplify by isolating the m
