$\bf \begin{array}{lllll} &x_1&y_1\\ % (a,b) &({{ 36}}\quad ,&{{ 24}}) \end{array} \\\\\\ % slope = m slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 34 \\\\\\ % point-slope intercept y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})\qquad \begin{array}{llll} \textit{plug in the values for } \begin{cases} y_1=24\\ x_1=36\\ m=34 \end{cases}\\ \end{array}\\ \left. \qquad \right. \uparrow\\ \textit{point-slope form}$
