Answer:

Explanation:

y - 4 = 3(x - 2)

y - 4 = 3x - 6

y = 3x - 2

standard form

-3x + y = -2

Answer:

this will be step by step so bear with me

Explanation:

first you must plug it into the point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

plug in

y-y1=3(x-2)

distribute the three into the ()

y-4=3x-6

now add 4 to both sides

y=3x-2

now standard form

Ax+By=C

y=3x-2

add 2 to both sides

y+2=3x

subtract y from both sides

2=3x-y

flip around the equation

3x-y=2
