Explanation:

First we have to finf the coordinates of point #A#. To find a point where a function #y=f(x)# crosses the #X# axis we solve the equation #f(x)=0#

#3x-9=0 => 3x=9 => x=3#

So the coordinates of #A# are #A=(3,0)#

The line we are looking for can be written as:

#y=2/3x+c# where #c# is a real constant.

We can use the calculated coordinates of the point #A# to calculate #c#:

#2/3*3+c=0 => c=-2#

The equation of the function is:

#y=2/3x-2#

Now to change the answer to the required form:

  1. Move all terms to the left side: #-2/3x+y+2=0#

  2. Multiply both sides by #3# to get integer coefficienrs:

#-2x+3y+6=0#
