For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the point-slope form is given by:


y-y_ {0} = m (x-x_ {0})

Where:

m: It's the slope


(x_ {0}, y_ {0}):It is a point through which the line passes

According to the given statement we have:


(x_ {0}, y_ {0}) :( 1,4)\\m = 3

Substituting we have:


y-4 = 3 (x-1)

Finally, the equation is:


y-4 = 3 (x-1)

Answer:


y-4 = 3 (x-1)
