Answer:

y=3x-16

Explanation:

The x value doesn't matter at this moment, but multiply 13 with 3 and you will get 39. Since the slope is positive you should add the number multiplied to -55 to get -55+39. The final answer is (0, -16) since that is what you want to aim for when going through the point with this equation.
