Hello!

The answer is:

The equation in slope-intercept form is:

To solve the problem and find equation in slope-intercept form of the line, we need to use the following formula:

y=mx+b

We are given the slope of the line, so, rewriting we have:

y=3x+b

Then, to find "b" we need to substitute the given point into the equation, so, substituting we have:

y=mx+b

-1=3*(4)+b

-1=12+b

b=-1-12=-13

Therefore, writing the equation of the line, we have:

Have a nice day!

Answer:

Final answer is
y=3x-13 .

Explanation:

Given that slope of the line is m=3

Plug the given point (4,-1) and the slope m=3 into point sloep formula:

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$

$y-(-1)=3\left(x-4\right)$

$y+1=3\left(x-4\right)$

y+1=3x-12

y=3x-12-1

y=3x-13

Which looks like slope intercept form of line y=mx+b

Hence final answer is
y=3x-13 .
