Answer:

Explanation:

Okay so you've gotta start with the y-intersect. The line hits the y-axis at 7, so your B is 7 (y=mx+7).

Since the line is going down, it's a negative slope, so your m will be a negative (y=-mx+7)

The line matches up exactly with (1,4), which shows the line moving down 3 for every 1 movement to the right. That makes your equation for the line y=-3x+7 or y=-3/1x+7
