Answer:


y+3=14(x-3)

Explanation:

Pre-Solving

We are given that a line passes through (3, -3) and has a slope (m) of 14. We want to write the equation in point-slope form.

Point-slope form is given as
y-y_1=m (x-x_1), where
(x_1,y_1) is a point and m is a slope.

Solving

Since we are given both the point and the slope, we can substitute these values into the formula.

First, replace m with 14.


y-y_1=14(x-x_1)

Now, substitute 3 as
x_1 and -3 as
y_1.


y--3=14(x-3)

We can rewrite this as:


y+3=14(x-3)
