Answer:

y =
(7)/(3)x -4

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line is given by:

y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept

Given the slope and point on a line, you can solve for 'b' in the equation:

(3, 3) - x = 3, y = 3

slope =
(7)/(3)

Plug into the equation:

3 =
(7)/(3)*3 + b

3 = 7 + b

-4 = b

y =
(7)/(3)x - 4
