Answer:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y-3=7( x - (- 1)

y - 3 = 7(x + 1)

y = 7x + 7 + 3

y = 7x + 10✨

The equation of a line can be written in point-slope form as:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where m is the slope of the line, (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

Substituting the given values, we get:

y - 3 = 7(x - (-1))

Simplifying the equation, we get:

y - 3 = 7x + 7

y = 7x + 10

Therefore, the equation of the line with slope 7 passing through the point (-1, 3) is y = 7x + 10
