y - y1 = m(x - x1) is the general point slope form

y - 3 = 5(x - 4) plug in the given values

y - 3 = 5x - 20

y = 5x - 20 + 3

y = 5x - 17

The answer in slope intercept form is y = 5x-17

If you want to convert to standard form, then

y = 5x - 17

y+17 = 5x

17 = 5x - y

5x - y = 17 which is the answer in standard form (Ax + By = C)
