\

Given point is $\"\"$ and slope(m) = $\"\"$ .

\

Because you know the slope and a point on the line,

\

Use point - slope form $\"\"$ to write an equation of the line.

\

Let $\"\"$ = $\"\"$ and slope(m) = . $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$ (Substitute $\"\"$ 3 for $\"\"$ ,7 for $\"\"$ and m = $\"\"$ ) $\"\"$

\

Rewrite in slope - intercept form.

\

$\"\"$ (Product of two same signs is positive)

\

$\"\"$ (Apply distributive property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Cancel common terms)

\

$\"\"$ (Multiply: $\"\"$ ) $\"\"$

\

Apply subtraction property of equality: a = b then a $\"\"$ c = b $\"\"$ c.

\

$\"\"$ (Subtract 3 from each side)

\

$\"\"$ (Apply additive inverse property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Apply additive identity property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Subtract: $\"\"$ ) $\"\"$

\

The equation of the line is $\"\"$ .
