As below.

#y = -x + 6#

#y = mx + c " is the slope-intercept form"#

#"Slope "= m = -1, "y-intercept "= 6#

#"when " y = 0, x = 6#

#:. "x-intercept "= 6, "y-intercept "= 6#

#"We know two points on the line, viz. " (6,0), (0,6)#

Now we can plot the points on a graph sheet. By joining them, we get the required line.

graph{-x + 6 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
